As an alternative, choke the HELL out of the construction sites with nasty and impossible to control invasive species. Bamboo, for example, or if you want to be really nasty giant hogweed. Kudzu is another good one.

These kinds of plants will clog waterworks, some bamboo can grow through concrete, and hogweed … well, getting rid of it requires skilled exterminators working over multiple years. And once all that’s done, a few seed bombs starts it all over again.

(Don’t do the hogweed unless you really hate people, though.)

Yeah! Stop asking questions, Luddite!

It works enough for the needs of someone with no standards, I agree.

LLMbeciles completely suck at counting anything or checking anything mechanical with text.

As an example, if I try to write a jueju and pass it to an LLMbecile to check if the rules were followed, it will fail to notice:

1. Jueju must have 5 characters on each line or 7 characters on each of their four lines. The LLMbeciles often don’t notice faux jueju that have, say, 8 or 6 characters on a line. Or that alternate between 5 and 7 characters. Or other routine counting analyses like that.
2. Jueju have very specific rhyme patterns. The LLMbeciles will not spot (ever!) faux jueju that don’t conform to that.
3. Jueju have, as their single hardest element (and the very reason why the poetic form is so well-regarded: someone who can write one of those to this requirement has formidable language skills!), a tonal pattern they must obey.

These three items are entirely mechanical. Counting characters on lines. Checking rhymes. Checking that words conform to tone patterns. There are programs you can get that will mechanically check that for you in microseconds. They’re that mechanical and regular. But LLMbeciles can never successfully negotiate all three, and will quite often fail on all three.

And I haven’t even got to the part of structural checking; things that require comprehension. Like how the jueju must be formed from two couplets. like how the two couplets form a kind of question/answer, call/response, state/reason or other such relationship. How line 3 must be a twist that shifts the subject of the first couplet to give new insight into the overall topic of the poem, etc. There’s just no way in Hell a next-word-guesser is going to handle that.

I suspect here we have a slop-licker who wanted to show how “crazy” the anti-LLMbecile crowd is by telling a story that is literally insane and expecting to get upvoted.

And then got downvoted to perdition.

This right here. Never underestimate how evil billionaires and their government stooges are.

Clankers and art.

I don’t think anybody in a group literally called “Fuck AI” is going to help you use AI, to be honest.

Heavily biased towards more common values of a particular subculture of a particular culture, in fact.

Want to have some fun? Ask a culturally weighted question (say about gun ownership) in English. Keep the question as neutral as possible. Watch the pro-gun stance take hold, nine times out of ten. Now ask the same question in a new session translated to idiomatic German. Again make sure the question is as neutral as possible. Compare the answers.

It is actually backed by studies.

Part of it is that LLMbeciles are tuned to “speak” like an overconfident techbrodude. This is actually off-putting to a lot of women. That whole “I know everything and have no humility about it whatsoever” vibe that techbrodudes and degenerative AI both have drives off a lot.

I have. Sometimes the brain isn’t paying attention.

Colour me dubious. Really, really dubious.

I’m going to take a random shot in the dark here, but … American, right?

They didn’t ask, is the point. They just said “I’m bored”.

The trait to be shunned in that is the trait of pushing your entertainment off on others.

When someone’s entire engagement is “I’m bored”, the unspoken follow-up is “entertain me”. This generation loves to go on and on and on about “emotional labour”. Well guess what: that unspoken “entertain me” is, get this, emotional labour.

Perhaps the people who say “I’m bored” should be told what I was told when I was single-digit aged: “There’s no such thing as being bored, only being boring.”

I think we spotted the slop-gobbler here.

So they’re not a race is what you’re saying. So dunking on them is not racism.

I know that it’s an American pastime to try and find their victim status, but you have to at least TRY to get the terminology right, dude!

Huh. Apparently just not a thing around here. Cool cool cool.

The dice aren’t going to be meaningfully random either. The number will be random, sure. But … the choices the dice are rolling against will have to come from somewhere.
