@jbenjamint @michaelm happy to be of service. Gísli Sigurðsson's book on Gaelic elements in Icelandic literature is the classic reference, and he's made it available online academia.edu/22139401/_Gaelic_. More generally, Judith Jesch's _The Viking diaspora_ is very relevant to the issues. On language, there isn't unfortunately a lot that's easily accessible; the most recent overview is benjamins.com/catalog/nss.26 but I wouldn't call it non-specialist I'm afraid.

Pretty spectacular example of the 'needs washed' construction here

I've seen a number of threads, blog posts, essays, etc., discussing the implications of Large Language Models such as the ChatGPT implementation of GPT3.5.

The worry is that these systems do a decent job at writing answers to fairly specific prompts, in that they bring together multiple elements to form a question. I've included an example below. If I asked a question like this on an exam, I'd give an answer like this full marks.
