So much of the article and the comments are focused on "blowing up your life" as a result of negative situations. Here's a sample of some of the negative verbiage seen here: "Baggage", "socially underdeveloped&

The municipality boards the world over were all similarly overwhelmed with sanctimony and paranoia. I think this mostly speaks to the demographic of Reddit. Which is to say, the fact that Reddit is home to any edifying discussion at all is

For a lot of the usecases that involve summarizing some form of input data (for instance the article mentions book summaries, math walkthroughs etc), how can I trust the output to not be hallucinated? How can I reasonably judge that what it
