So I couldn't find the specific post I was thinking of off hand, and there seems to be about a dozen or so hits on various forum-type sites like Quora/Reddit etc. So... yeah I don't know, maybe it is real? But there has been an instance of someone using an LLM to make a story about an LLM saving their life. So maybe this one is real. Maybe it is not? Who knows. Reality is kind of mushy these days.
