> I'm sampling problems that I and others run through an LLM
This is not what’s happening unless 100% of the problems they’ve sampled (even outside of this fun little exercise) have been run through an LLM.
They’re pretending like it doesn’t matter that they’re looking at untold numbers of other problems and are not aware whether those are LLM generated or not.
Combined with frequent treats brought in by coworkers (a colleague of mine likes to bring in breakfast bagels from McD for my small team...hard to resist lmao)
Addiction, depression, it's a cycle. Something happens that causes depression, eating gives some feel good chemicals and being a sloth is to avoid potential disappointment.
1) Sorry I didn't list other reasons in order for you to understand that there is more than one reason it's done. 2) You bringing up feudalism is still completely random lol. I get you're trying to make the point "just because something was done in the past doesn't make it a good idea", but the contrary is also true - just because something was done in the past doesn't make it a bad idea. Using your logic, I suppose we should stop cooking food since it was done in the past and everything done in the past is akin to feudalism lol
I think there is a difference between "I don't like the joke/topic" and "apparently..."
The latter points out the obvious (of course someone wanted to make the joke, it was made) simply to try to garner sympathy and paint the joke-teller in a negative light.
Do you mean that Molly is going too far by not just criticizing the joke, but also, by implication, criticizing the joke-teller?
If Molly had said "I don't think that this joke is funny, and it is in poor taste to make light of victims of accounting fraud" do you think that would have been better and wouldn't have implied anything about the joke-teller?
From the post you're replying to:
> Obviously we can't sample from unknown-authorship … nor am I; I'm sampling problems that I and others run through an LLM, and the output thereof.
