I caught myself saying "push back" the other day. I've never said it before, it's a Claude-ism.

  That's a corporate phrase that predates the current llm stuff along with things like ping, circle back,table that

    Is it? I'd never heard it until Claude (or maybe Gemini was where I first heard it from). Any idea of the time frame when it started being spoken?

      At least 5-10 years. Like my whole career. The llms usually remind me of how corporate people talk

          "what is your ask" instead of "what is your question."

            These are different to me. An ask is when you expect some action from the person. A question is for an answer.

    Right, but I hadn't really heard it before until I started using AI daily.

      This shows that a lot of neologisms that people think of as ‘AI speak’ are often older and common terms but from an unfamiliar domain (like the corporate world or academia).
