TA-SWISS Call for proposals: Large Language Models (LLMs)

TA-SWISS (Foundation for Technology Assessment) is calling for proposals of interdisciplinary research focusing on the impacts of Large Language Models (LLMs) (like ChatGPT) on human skills and competencies, such as writing, reading, and information retrieval, particularly in Switzerland.
The central question is how the widespread use of these models will transform competencies, both positively (upskilling) and negatively (deskilling). It will also explore societal, ethical, and legal challenges, providing actionable recommendations for adapting to these changes in education, the workplace, and other sectors.
