This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Understanding how LLMs behave is so interesting, because now I don’t trust it to even provide simple brainstorming or second opinions. Open two tabs and phrase your question, but open each prompt with a phrase that applies your personal bias or initial thoughts as to what the answer is, and then the response will naturally lean heavily in that direction. Once I realized that, I didn’t really want to use it again. I want help that tells me I’m wrong and points me in the correct direction, not someone who tells me I’m basically correct already but has me coming back again since the previous answer was flat out wrong.

Huh, this made me able to put word to what I have realized LLMs are doing all the time...

LLM are just artificial yes men.
