I bet this person is from a different culture than you? I'm American raised in the states, and this read like a Brit. The author's domain is .uk (https://tink.uk/ https://tink.uk/) so I suspect that's true.

I don't think that's it; "I sat up a little straighter and read on" doesn't seem very cultural? Just making something into storytelling which doesn't fit at all imho. I grew up with uk humor and writing anyway.

  Yeah, one of my pet peeves is when someone really puts a lot of effort into making a technical article into an exaggerated story about themselves, like some sort of gonzo journalist. An explanation after each response, clearly pointing out the problem, is better than, 'The computer gave a response. I looked at the response, shocked. Wow. WOW!!!! Wooooooooooooooow. Absolutely shocked. I couldn't understand why I got that answer instead of the one in my mind. My head was spinning.

I wondered where I went wrong because of the response. Then I pondered where humanity went wrong because of the response. Then I thought about where homo sapiens went wrong because of the response. Clearly this bad response by chatgpt was a fundamental error with evolution. Do I really want to exist in a world where an LLM can give a bad response? Does anybody??? What is this world coming to when something on the internet is wrong?????' 'It was then that I typed my second ever message to chatgpt.
