    I love that humans are inclined to anthropamorphize things. A door can’t be sad. A street can’t be lonely. The moon can’t be wistful. The ocean can’t be angry.

    But they can… in our heads. And that’s real for us.

    I think that, at least at a societal level, this part of the human condition has been mostly benign. Just a little bit of spice.

    LLMs seem to have short circuited that part in our brains. We can’t even describe errata of a system without anthropamorphizing it
