If you only give it a few paragraphs, most words only occur once, so it ends up copying whole phrases from the input until it hits a common word. Computers are very good at sounding like human writing when they're just reproducing things that humans in fact did write. LLMs mostly aren't doing that, though.

Also it seems to really like emitting parts of copyright messages, since they occur verbatim everywhere. Happy part of today's 10'000.
