What the hell? How much of a world model does it have, that it can do things like write coherently about death as liberation, and come up with examples of things a living thing might be relieved at not having to bother with anymore? How the hell did a computer write this? Are we sure it's not been overtrained and this is actually a verbatim story from somewhere?

Surely this kind of topic came up in its corpus. I would expect it to have sufficient generalization to "understand" and talk about the topic itself. If all instances of this topic in its training data were replaced with the emotions clowns undergo when throwing ripe tomatoes, it would've written about that.
