From Bias to Positionality: A critical grammar for Large Language Models

arXiv:2611.14079v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bias has become a default lens for understanding what machine learning systems do and how we should relate to them. Bias is at root a deviation from a standard; in decision making systems we can supply a standard from outside: a law, a protected attribute, a benchmark, a statistical property. However, even there, biased is often used as a shorthand, without stating what the position taken is - a silent ``relative to''.
