My name used to be Rachel but they made it illegal in my country after the Friends finale so I had to change it to Dave. It doesn't really suit me but it's nice whenever I introduce myself people are like "wow. Dave, that's such a unique name". I've only ever met one other Dave in my life and he was a total loser like me so we hit it off pretty well and got married 6 days ago at a Asian grocery store in The Dominican Republic.

I hope I meet another Dave one day so I can marry him too. I've considered changing my name back to Rachel since it doesn't seem to be illegal anymore but you know that name just doesn't suit me as well as Dave.

This sounds like the kind of almost close-to-reality story an AI would tell

[–] totally_human_emdash_user@piefed.blahaj.zone 39 points 1 month ago (5 children)

It makes me sad that we have reached a point where the very randomness that makes these kinds of stories charming (to someone with a twisted sense of humor like myself) also make them less likely to be coming from a human instead of more.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 month ago

Right, mhm, cause we all know you're totally human, right? aha, aha

[–] Schmoo@startrek.website 4 points 1 month ago

This sort of randomness seems more like the text produced by a markov chain than a modern LLM.

[–] suddenlyme@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yesterday we were having a conversatiion about how AI can only make mundane stories like Avatar.

The opposite of this.

But i feel both ae true.

[–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

I sympathise with your username. I've picked up a habit of using dashes too, but because LLMs are apparently trained on the same writing style that I'm compulsively imitating, that habit tends to be mistaken as an identifier for LLM-slop—an understandable confusion, given that most people don't casually use it, but I tend to fall into linguistic patterns with little regard for the context I'm writing in. I'll accidentally use informalities in professional writing as well, but whereas I'll make an effort to correct my tone in professional contexts, I just can't be arsed to apply the same diligence in a casual one.

No LLM version of 'holds up spork'?

[–] notabot@piefed.social 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I have a note against their user, "Absurdist". I don't know whether they're using an LLM to generate these, and, to be honest, I was somewhat iritated by them at first, but I've come to enjoy their occasional bouts of weirdness in random threads.

[–] MacaqueAndCheese@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago (2 children)

How the hell would I generate these using a Liquor License of Montreal? That makes about as much sense as shaving a kiwi to ride an airplane toy to the oven.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 2 points 1 month ago

shaving a kiwi to ride an airplane toy to the oven.

You're a poet. Where do I subscribe?

[–] notabot@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

My apologies, I should have been more explicit, I was referring to a Large Library of Material. Obviously you have a vast repository of fascinating anecdotes and analogies to draw from.

[–] bytesonbike@discuss.online 3 points 1 month ago

Honestly I miss early AI.

I miss the ugly art. I miss the weird tangents. I miss Will Smith eating spaghetti and consuming himself.

I know you can set up a quick AI to relive this... But it was better when it was the norm.

Pretty straight forward, really. It's a story as old as time.

This reads like something Chris Simpsons Artist would say. Back when I used to use Instagram I followed his account and all of his captions were like this. It was great. Glad to see someone on Lemmy writes like him.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Dave's not here, man.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

All the people I know that go by Dave are 60+ years old. David is the youthful version.

Can’t believe people upvote this shit.

Guess I’ll just block this account then.

[–] Psionicsickness@reddthat.com 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ooo ooo, block me too!!! I wouldn’t want you to accidentally have any fun!

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

licks your forehead

[–] MacaqueAndCheese@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago

Guess I'll never get into Jay's bone zone. Love you Doug.

I thought it was silly and funny. It has classic Reddit all over it.
