Stanford NLP shares the Aug 19, 2026 release of Jurafsky & Martin's Speech and Language Processing (3rd ed. draft). The update finally adds a chapter 1 built from LLM material, merges the Transformers chapter with pretraining/decoding content, and publishes a half-finished interpretability chapter 10. The authors also used Claude Opus 5 to suggest exercises and audit the first 8 chapters for bugs — it found plenty. Full PDF, chapter drafts and updated slides are freely available.
