I'd argue that doing something you don't like with people you're not into is a L. Loneliness isn't optimal but for some people it's the lesser evil. I'm married though, so I have a floor, I'm sure some people are lonely enough to benefit from being around people even under the worst of circumstances.

Sure, I’m not saying it needs to be kickball. I’m just saying if you find yourself being grounded by an LLM, maybe you should seek out a community of people you do actually like who do something you actually like.

I appreciate the sentiment, and I'm sure you mean well. It does feel a bit patronizing though, please consider that there are a lot of competent people who've experienced loneliness, chewed through their local meetups and Facebook events, found them wanting, and decided a little loneliness was a better choice.
