> The fact that you don't know whether you're talking to an LLM or a human right now is good enough for me.

Uh huh. So you have no evidence, and can't prove shit. That's what I figured.

LLMs are nothing but a shallow mirror of human thought, they don't hold up to any serious examination and the only people who think they do are typically narcissists who can't form deep connections with real people. The superficiality of LLMs is not apparent to these fans, because they have never managed to connect with the depth and inner world of another human.

You hate to see it. It's like watching somebody about to be hit by a bus. You scream, you wave your arms, but they either don't see you, or they think you're some kind of nut and ignore you.

Then, the next thing that goes through their mind -- the last thing -- is a chrome hood ornament shaped like a greyhound.

Oh so you do get it! All these idiots running around acting like a calculator can think. The bus is really going to hurt when they hit 40 and realize they outsourced all their humanity to a machine. Art, writing, even reading - these dorks hand it all over to chatGPT. Then they go online and act like they’re more productive than ever, when all they can produce is a dribbling stream of liquid shit.
As it happens, https://www.imo2026.com/ is coming up next week in Shanghai. Grab your best calculator, let's see how you do without thinking.
