- Abstract: Causality is fundamental in human cognition and has drawn attention in
diverse research fields. With growing volumes of textual data, discerning
causalities within text data is crucial, and causal text mining plays a pivotal
role in extracting meaningful patterns. This study conducts comprehensive
evaluations of ChatGPT's causal text mining capabilities. Firstly, we introduce
a benchmark that extends beyond general English datasets, including
domain-specific and non-English datasets. We also provide an evaluation
framework to ensure fair comparisons between ChatGPT and previous approaches.
Finally, our analysis outlines the limitations and future challenges in
employing ChatGPT for causal text mining. Specifically, our analysis reveals
that ChatGPT serves as a good starting point for various datasets. However,
when equipped with a sufficient amount of training data, previous models still
surpass ChatGPT's performance. Additionally, ChatGPT suffers from the tendency
to falsely recognize non-causal sequences as causal sequences. These issues
become even more pronounced with advanced versions of the model, such as GPT-4.
In addition, we highlight the constraints of ChatGPT in handling complex
causality types, including both intra/inter-sentential and implicit causality.
The model also faces challenges with effectively leveraging in-context learning
and domain adaptation. We release our code to support further research and
development in this field.
