@johnloeber They usually show things out of the ordinary. Even when in the context of the ordinary, it's not the ordinary that is highlighted.

For example, how many movies show someone taking a dump? It's a good thing for you that we just don't feature in stories.

@alightinastorm where do you see your agents working in five years?

LLMs are good at making plausible text but terrible at actually delivering information. They have awful theory of the reader's mind.

And one of the ways this manifests is in the way they name functions. LLM function names are consistently gibberish. They convey no meaning.

When people think of popular permadeath games they don't usually remember The Oregon Trail.

When you play video games do you enjoy permadeath mechanics?

I personally love the stories it makes possible.
