\textit{Versteasch du mi?} Computational and Socio-Linguistic Perspectives on GenAI, LLMs, and Non-Standard Language

The paper examines how Large Language Models (LLMs) and generative AI (GenAI) are biased against less-spoken languages and deepen the digital language divide. Drawing on critical sociolinguistics and computational linguistics, it investigates the intersections of technology, language policy, and linguistic variation using South Tyrolean dialects and Kurdish varieties as case studies. The authors explore technical solutions for handling non‑standard language and assess whether such approaches can support democratic and decolonial digital strategies with policy implications.
