Abstract

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI), text generation has become a field of great concern. However, there are few related studies from the perspective of linguistics. Natural language processing technology should have been combined with linguistics, but traditional linguistics cannot provide sufficient theoretical support for large language models. Thus, linguistics is getting farther away from the needs of the times. This paper aims to analyze why the integration of large language models and linguistics is insufficient, with ChatGPT as an example to explain the text characteristics of AI writing and its reasons. In addition, this paper explores the impact of AI-generated text patterns on linguistics and how linguistics will develop in the new era.
