I feel strongly about this. LLMs should not try to write like humans. Computer voices should sound robotic. And when we have actual androids walking around, they should stay on the far side of the uncanny valley. People are already anthropo

Is it even worth posting the Niemöller poem anymore? People have been taught their whole lives how this works. If they won't see it now, what will they understand?

All true, but more likely as a design for social control than a reaction to MIC financial pressures.

Also, "anecdotes > data" as a general heuristic is a red flag. But like if clowns had a country and their flag were red. That kind.

Khaki means brown in a few languages. Means poop in at least hebrew. Dumdums: I thought it was more filing the tip down. Causes tumbling, which then causes breakup. Nitpick, maybe I'm mistaken.
