We are pleased to announce the publication of “Understanding Conversational AI: Philosophy, Ethics, and Social Impact of Large Language Models” by Thierry Poibeau.
As Large Language Models (LLMs) become integrated into every aspect of our digital lives, understanding their mechanism is no longer enough. We must also address the fundamental questions they raise regarding human communication, ethical boundaries, and their long-term societal footprint.
This book provides a comprehensive overview of:
- The philosophical foundations of automated conversation.
- Ethical considerations, from data privacy to algorithmic bias.
- The social impact of deploying these models at scale.
In alignment with PRAIRIE’s commitment to Open Science, the book is available in Open Access, ensuring that this crucial knowledge is accessible to researchers, students, and the general public worldwide.

Coming soon: A French version of the book is scheduled for publication in the course of 2026.
