I'd wonder whether an LLM could make a coherent translation engine. It's like cognoscenti of the cthulic void rhyming slang.

I gave chatGPT4 the "common traits of Death Metal English" and then asked it to translate "Commuting to work" into death metal English. The response: In the parlance of Death Metal English, "Commuting to work" might be translated as "Transversing the Dreaded Pathway to the Monolith of Enslavement." That's pretty metal...

  That's pretty fascinating, as there are values inherent in the language, where a death metal flavoured AI might create different associations and have a different logic - and then reify it. Whoops. Awesome.

I did this on ChatGPT then found your comment. prompt: translate: "I love football. Go bears!" response: I EMBRACE THE GRIDIRON'S FURY. GO FORTH, O BEARS! Side note - I told chatgpt I wanted it to serve as a Death Metal English translator and that I would share the article for more details then make translation requests in follow up prompts. It responded by translating the article. It did a good job of translating after that but I wasnt sure if there was a better way for me to prompt it.

  For that phrase chatgpt4 offered me: In Death Metal English, "I love football. Go bears!" could be translated as "I am enthralled by the Battle of the Spherical Beast. Ascend, Ominous Ursine Legion!"

ChatGPT was made for this. Here is a link to a conversation I just made so anyone can test it: https://chat.openai.com/share/807fddd2-4628-4052-9e65-0963175ecc10 https://chat.openai.com/share/807fddd2-4628-4052-9e65-096317... Here are some examples: Normal English: "My boss needs this report by 5 PM" Death Metal English: "THE OVERSEER OF OUR TOILS DEMANDS THE MANUSCRIPT OF ACCOUNTABILITY ANON UPON THE QUINTESSENTIAL HOUR OF THE SOLAR DECLINE" Normal English: "That sounds like a win-win situation to me!" Death Metal English: "UNTO MINE EARS, IT RESONATES AS THE DUAL FACETED TRIUMPH OF FATE'S INEXORABLE CONFLUENCE!" And, for those of you trying to explain the Single Responsibility Principle to your colleagues for the umpteenth time: "THE SOLITARY OBLIGATION DOCTRINE THUNDERETH FORTH THE DECREE THAT EVERY CONSTRUCT, STRUCTURE, SEGMENT, OR SERVITUDE MUST BEAR A SINGLE, UNMISTAKABLY ETCHED DUTY. IN THE TONGUE OF THE MORTALS, EACH CLASS, FUNCTION, OR MODULE SHALL BE GUIDED BY ONE AND ONLY ONE CATALYST OF TRANSFORMATION."

I woner if all these pointless "I wonder how LLM could be used here" ponderings could be generated by an LLM.
