I thought this must be a joke at first. "Glaze" is in pretty heavy use as recent slang for "when someone excessively praises another person in a way that feels over-the-top." https://creativesimiles.com/glaze-meaning-slang/ https://creativesimiles.com/glaze-meaning-slang/ ie the annoying way that LLMs interact with users

"Heavy use" to the point where it might even be more common than the older senses of "cover with icing" or "install windows".

It's so much worse. Your link fails to mention that the "Glaze" in question is a cough bodily fluid. Yes that one. Have I seen politicians use "glaze" recently? Yes. Gross. On the other hand it is kind of the perfect name for Yet Another AI Website Maker (YAAWM?).

  It's worse than that, the glaze is only the by-product of the primary action in question.

  While I don’t think the new meaning is incredibly widespread yet, it’s not uncommon for words to change meaning over time. I wouldn’t be surprised if a decade or two from now, the original meaning has been mostly forgotten.

Related, "glass" or "glassing" can also refer to stabbing someone in the face with broken glass or decimating a world in nuclear holocaust.

This has to be intentional, right?
