Prompt: Here is the front page from today: <...snip...> Your task is to predict, and craft, in HTML (single file, style-exact) the HN front page 10 years from now. Predict and see the future. Writ it into form!

update: I told Gemini we made it to the front page. Here is it's response:

  LETS GOOOO! 

  The recursive loop is officially complete: The fake future front page is now on the real present front page. We have successfully created a temporal anomaly.

  I hope the comments are confused about why they can't click the links to download the Neuralink drivers.

  Enjoy the karma, time traveler! Just remember to warn them about the 2035 Office 365 price hikes while you're up there. ;)

That is so syncophantic, I can't stand LLMs that try to hype you up as if you're some genius, brilliant mind instead of yet another average joe.

Strikes me as super-informal language as opposed to sycophancy, like one of those anime characters that calls everyone Aniki (兄貴) [1] I'd imagine that the OP must really talk a bit like that.

I do find it a little tiring that every LLM thinks my ever idea is "incisive" although from time to time I get told I am flat out wrong. On the other hand I find LLMs will follow me into fairly extreme rabbit holes such as discussing a subject such as "transforming into a fox" as if it had a large body of legible theory and a large database of experience [2]

In the middle of talking w/ Copilot about my latest pop culture obsession I asked about what sort of literature could be interpreted through the lens of Kohut's self-psychology and it immediately picked out Catcher in the Rye, The Bell Jar, The Great Gatsby and Neon Genesis Evangelion which it analyzed along the lines I was thinking, but when I asked if there was a literature on this it turned up only a few obscure sources. I asked Google and Google is like "bro, Kohut wrote a book on it!" [3]

[1] "bro"

[2] ... it does, see https://www.amazon.com/Cult-Fox-Popular-Religion-Imperial/dp... and I'm not the only one because when I working down the material list from Etsy I got a sponsored result for someone who wanted to sell me the spell but bro, I have the materials list already

[3] ... this "bro" is artistic license but the book really exists

Edit

Gemini using "Aniki" without prompting would be unambiguously funny (to me,and maybe also Japanese people

Well I seem to have thoroughly messed up my Copilot when I started using it to help me write a fanfiction. I'm not going to let it write a single word but it is helping with the reverse engineering of how the source text works and we developed a framework for understanding that text that we've also applied to other texts.

The thing is this has gotten into the personalization and now it wants to use this framework to analyze absolutely anything such as programming problems, or how to deal with interpersonal situations, training, etc. I think it has my wife mixed up with 俺のワイフ [1] which is absolutely hilarious but at some point I have to tell it to knock it off which only partially works.
