Decided? jfc

>You're important. Your a scientific programming God!

I'm flabbergasted. I can't imagine what it would take for me to write something so stupid. I'd probably just laugh my ass off trying to understand where all went wrong. wtf is happening, what kind of mass psychosis is this. Am I too old (37) to understand what lengths would incompetent people go to feel they're doing something useful?

Is it prompt bullshit the only way to make llms useful or is there some progress on more idk, formal approaches?

Right? Any definition of "a god" that a LLM will hold is going to be problematic to work with. No one wants that personality on their team, much less in the wild.

At best it's absolute in its power and intelligence. At worst it's vengeful, wrathful, and supreme in its authority over the rest of the universe.

I just. Wow.

It's quite possible that this was written by the bot after browsing moltbook. That site/service has a whole AI religion thing going.
