       @ZachWeinersmith It's coded speech that shows their political alliance.After all, you have to show you're a proper person with the correct politics and thus deserving of respect. Unless you're Autistic and think words should mean things, but most people aren't.

       @ZachWeinersmith Wild sheep do produce some interesting curves on the rams, their bodies use both fat stores and wool thickness to emphasise large muscles and provoke interest from the ewes at a much lower energy cost than building large muscles.

       @ZachWeinersmith Why would a response completion program know what words mean?Like, at all. Obviously it can quote the dictionary if you ask it to, but it's not a child with limited understanding of the world, it's just an enormously large if-then-else statement that makes familiar-seeming responses to text.I'm pretty sure cockroaches are far more complex than GPT, they can respond appropriately to several types of stimulus.And like, physics models don't understand physics either.
