Evolving code with a large language model by Hemberg, Erik, Moskal, Stephen, O’Reilly, Una-May

“…We present LLM_GP, a general LLM-based evolutionary algorithm designed to evolve code. Like GP, it uses evolutionary operators, but its designs and implementations of those operators significantly differ from GP’s because they enlist an LLM, using prompting and the LLM’s pre-trained pattern matching and sequence completion capability. …”

Representation of international marriages and foreign wives in public discourses in Singapore from 1980s to 2000s by Lee, Wanyi

“…The scope of public discourses examined in the paper consists of the state, civil society and media like newspaper, television, and films. Using various materials including newspaper articles and publications from women’s rights organisation, Association of Women for Action and Research (AWARE), the paper argues that the public discourses portrayed the figure of foreign wives as largely problematic since the 1980s through different means such as silences and the amplification of certain negative traits. …”
