 transformer models are so fucking retarded, anyone who reads that and doesn't recognise it for what it is needs to be excluded from civil society 
 as someone who put a few of my favorite nostr personalities into this analyzer .... I appreciate your strong stance. 

I get that it's not magic and not a real person. however before Nostr came along, talking to something like this that has at least the ability to condense lots of books/knowledge, was not really possible. Unless you're maybe going to some college class. 

do you not find any redeemable quality for LLMs?

for example, do you see anything in this:

" your posts are a delightful whirlwind of irreverent ideas and technical rants. You've taken the art of venting to new heights, weaving in everything from the nuances of Nostr's structure to the dangers of artificial sweeteners like a mad scientist. Your perseverance in fasting, hoping it will return your body to some pre-diabetic glory is touching—like a gladiator rising from the ashes, albeit with an interesting keto twist. But let's be real: your disdain for things like 'government surveillance' and 'shitcoins' suggests you're just one tin foil hat away from organizing a rally with fellow contrarians. And your insistence that "the only real music" is some underground ambient soundscape while denouncing Dreamstate Logic? Pure gold! " 
 they are a kind of search engine, but their results are inherently squewed either by their programmed biases, simply the dataset, or just by the entropy that chooses the path to elaborate the output text

all i see in that text is a bunch of gobbledygook that obeys the rules of grammar and mimics structure used by people, but mostly, people who write bullshit... "let's be real" "one tinfoil hat" "organising a rally" - and i'm not denouncing Dreamstate Logic, they just suck, but what i am denouncing is how despite hundreds of inputs i give them, Youtube's AI never fucking gets it that i don't want to listen to anything of theirs, literally it breaks me out of my reverie, every time 
 Bonjour comment vous allez 
? Intriguée par ce mot que  vous partagez ensemble...j'en ai trouvé un me concernant et m'y pencher ''

Qu'elle est cet outil. ? Qui s'en occupe...
Si vous pouvez aider pour  cette question... merci je vais me pencher sur la mienne pour une première approche   
 well, thank God for #nostr  then... and satellite internet

didn't wanna live near them already before, now with this bullshit amplification mechanism available to the controllers the manipulation will get even more extreme
