We should call the fake stick "NAM" for "no access memory." Then you can tell your kids that they couldn't possibly understand, man, because they weren't _there

    If you compose a text of enough references and (well-known) in-jokes, and get the perplexity/burstiness stats right, you too can reliably produce text that the AI-detectors think is inhuman. I suspect that doesn't work so well for the latest-generation AI-detection systems (e.g. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.inffus.2025.103465 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.inffus.2025.103465), but there's definitely a way to fool those, too.

    This is quite good. I'll leave you, Mr. ChompSkie, to decide if that's an AmE or BrE "quite".

    "Manufacturing Content" is such a stupendously fabulous multi-faceted pun, someone please make this real.

  You just need to work in "All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain," and "Time to die".

I'd call it write-only memory.

Or DMZBR, for "dedicated mass zero buffer ram". 4, 8, or 16 gigabyte sticks of the finest zeroes on Earth! Now you don't have to reuse the same zeroes over and over! Reduces wear and tear on your zeroes!

Is that like the Write Once Read Never (WORN) drive?
