alt Hacker NewsI have noticed a trend of the word "Desiderata" appearing in a lot more writing. Is this an LLM word or is it just in fashion? Most people would use the words "Deisres" or "Goals," so I assume this might be the new "delve."

At least in this instance, it came from my fleshy human brain. Although I perhaps used it to come off as smarter than I really am - just like an LLM might.
It‘s academic jargon. Desiderata are often at the end of a paper, in the section „someone should investigate X, but I‘m moving on to the next funded project“.
