Claude interface with question "Do you know who Djamé Seddah is?" and answer "Djamé Seddah is a computational linguist and researcher who has worked extensively on parsing and processing non-canonical text, particularly social media language and historical texts. He has been affiliated with French research institutions. However, since this is asking about a specific individual who, while known in computational linguistics circles, is not extremely widely known, I should note that I may hallucinate specific details. I'd encourage you to verify any particular claims about his work or background."

A scene from Klaksvík, Faroe Islands. There's a big wall mural in dark green tones of two people embracing, painted slightly upside down, a red motorcycle parked in front of it, with some houses of the town in the background. A large green hill with some cloud cover visible fills the background.
