        This is actually a fair use of an LLM. Nobody’s going through this thread to make a stack of headlines, but the AI summary here is kinda neat. And that’s from someone who generally loathes AI giving me a summary.

          It’s not a summary of this thread. I gave it the title and the platform in question and asked it to make an educated guess on what the responses here are going to be like.

        No thinking required here as is demonstrated by said machine accurately predicting major part of the responses to this thread, including yours. This is nothing but a roll-call for people to come parrot and upvote the popular, broadly accepted talking points.

          You’re like that guy in an episode of Friends that no one liked because he thought interacting with other humans in any way was beneath him.

            Nah, it’s not me you’re not liking - you don’t even know me. You just don’t like what I’m saying and I’m perfectly okay with that.

            Yeah! So how about you go through this thread and make headlines out of the most popular responses. Sound like a PITA you wouldn’t do in the first place? Y’all acting like this was a school assignment and OP cheated. 🙄

                Technically speaking, no comment is necessary and few are solicited. I found it a bit amusing, you didn’t. No big deal either way. Bonus! OP wasted yet more AI compute for free, hastening the AI downfall but a trillion small cuts. I’m fine with that.

                (This comment unnecessary and unsolicited.)

                  Actually your last point about using more compute resonates with me, so now I have changed my view, thank you (being 100% sincere, not snarky)

                  It wasn’t a summary of this thread. I gave it the title and the platform and asked it to come up with the most predictable responses. It never saw what was already written here. Also, I’m paying 30 euros a month to use said AI.

            I gave it no link to this thread. Only the title and the platform and asked it to predict the most likely responses.

          This isn’t something any of us would have been thinking about compiling in the first place. Using an LLM in this case made a cool list. Everyone here acting like you cheated on a school test that required thought.

          Lol you’re missing out on the galactic orgy crumbum.

          And trump didn’t just die, he died on a toilet. OR he was given 500 years of life to serve a 400 year prison sentence.

          Also also, this thread is for fun. Do you know what fun is?

            On a theoretical level yes, but due to how my mind works I tend to find joy in things other people don’t, and vice versa not find it in things other people do.

      If we wanted to see LLM responses, we wouldn’t be here but in a chatbot window…

        You only know it’s an LLM because I told you so. The content itself is in perfect alignment with the rest of the comments here. Just highlights how unsurprising and predictable the responses here actually are. I could’ve picked any of those and posted it here, without mentioning the source, and I would’ve been showered with upvotes. This isn’t a difficult game to play which is why I’m not even playing.

        It produced response one way or another. Is there something wrong with it content-wise? Because even in the case of it being a direct quote taken from somewhere else, it would only further make my point: this place being a caricature of itself to the point that articles are being written about it.
