- Experimental Pragmatics with Machines: Testing LLM Predictions for the Inferences of Plain and Embedded Disjunctions (2024 · 3 citations)
The paper asks whether large language models can add evidence to an open debate in pragmatics. The debate concerns the inferences triggered by "or": ignorance (II), distributive (DI) and free choice (FC). Are these ordinary scalar implicatures (SI)? And do their POSSIBILITY and DISTRIBUTIVE parts depend on first… - Implicating without intentions (2026)
Note: the PDF header gives the title as "Implicating with commitment". This theoretical pragmatics paper asks whether scalar implicatures (SIs), such as "some" suggesting "not all", can be explained without attributing beliefs and intentions to the speaker. Neo-Gricean accounts derive SIs from what the speaker… - On the source of distributive inferences (2026)
The paper examines how two inferences relate when a disjunction sits under a universal operator. For "every box contains A or B", hearers infer that some box has A and some box has B. These are distributive (D) inferences. Hearers may also infer that not every box has A, and likewise for B. These are negated… - Spreading ignorance (2026)
The squib asks which notion of "alternative" best explains ignorance inferences (IIs), the sense that a speaker uttering a disjunction does not know which part is true.
