The Evaluation of GenAI Capabilities to Implement Professional Tasks by Yaroslav Kouzminov, Ekaterina Kruchinskaia

“…In this way we conceptualize the most recent problem of LLMs as the general trend of mistakes even in the core of knowledge and non-causality of mistake via the complexity of question, as the mistake can be named as an accident and be everywhere as the most limitation of professionalism. At their current stage of development, LLMs are not widely used in a professional context, nor have they replaced human workers. …”

All the Faces of Agency in Video Games by Biljana Mitrović

“…Apart from the fact that video games are still a current and wide area of study, the reason for academic interest and the publishing of books in this area is also methodological – video game studies use multidisciplinary interactions between various areas of theory and games while demonstrating how video games fit and influence the existing theoretical and methodological models in the humanities.It is in this context that we have an interesting example: Bettina Bódi’s Videogames and Agency (Routledge, 2023). …”
