    The only time I’ve had an extended “conversation” with an LLM was when I was trying to get DeepSeek to talk about Taiwan’s independence. At no point did it ever feel like I was talking to a human. It felt a lot more like I was “hacking” it than I was chatting with it.

    It’s sad that there are humans so starved for human contact that they’ll talk to an LLM as if it were a person. But, it’s even more sad that there are people who can’t distinguish the slop an LLM puts out from things a human says.

      I don’t think you’re in a position to judge if you’ve never even attempted to talk to an LLM in good faith. I’m not saying it’s indistinguishable from a human (it’s definitely distinguishable) but if you’re open minded then you may be able to appreciate it for what it is

        Why would anybody want to “Talk to an LLM in good faith”?

        I don’t need to eat shit to know that I wouldn’t want to eat shit.
