The replies also make it clear the sycophancy of LLM chatbots is still alive and well.

All of the replies I saw were falling over themselves to praise OP. Not a single one gave an at all human chronically-online comment like “I can’t believe I spent 5 minutes of my life reading this disgusting slop”.

It’s like an echo chamber of the same mannerisms, which must be right in the center of the probability distribution for responses.

Would be interesting to see the first “non-standard” response to see how far out the tails go on the sycophancy-argumentative spectrum. Seems like a pretty narrow distribution rn
