keicjwdjwj··on Humanising LLM Outputs Is Dumb
Everything it spills out is made up language. Forcing it to respond as what it is (a tool) would mean wasting less tokens but also would be a much tougher sell to people who think AI means it can actually think. This is all just marketing.

Somewhere an Anthropocene investor just had the biggest most powerful erection ever reading your comment.

This is peak “I bought into their marketing spiel” vibes. Congratulations.

Nice philosophical loop hole. Like a first year’s philosophy major trying to sound smart in front of the class.

Please.

You know it doesn’t experience joy, surprise or empathy too. You absolutely, undoubtedly know that.

You are part of the problem. You are not being empathetic, you are falling into a trap.

An LLM is not a person. Do not humanise it. Do not personalise it. Do not treat it as more than a glorified autocorrect—that’s what it really is.

Humanising LLMs is exactly what these companies want, because then they can really take advantage of the I in AI which is exactly what makes people think these steroidal spellcheckers have any semblance of intelligence, person and personality.

Stop it.
