Input: the Gettysburg Address. Output: 87 years ago, our founders launched a disruptive startup on this continent—a new nation built on the core values of liberty and the mission-driven proposition that "all men are created equal." Right now, we’re facing a major pivot point in a great civil war, testing whether this organization, or any venture with such a strong culture and vision, can truly scale and endure. We’re…

This is hilarious but... and I can't believe Im actually giving critique here... but a modern day, LinkedIn version would be couched in words like "exceedingly complex", "multi-domain", "system of systems", etc.

But the whole thing is brilliant. And #GrowthMindset at the end is absolute gold.

Everybody else looks for em dashes. For me that is the number 1 tell of AI.

Anybody else being annoyed by all this focus on em-dash use to detect AI? In no time, the bad guys will tell their BS machines to avoid em-dashes and "it's not X it's Y" and whatever else people use as "tell-tale signs" and eventually the training data will have picked up on that too. And people who genuinely use em-dashes for taste reasons or are otherwise using expressions considered typical for AI are getting a ba…

Yes, the “AI detectives” can be quite annoying, as the comments are always the same. No substance, just “has X, it’s AI”. The em-dashes detectives tend to be the worse, because they often refuse to understand that em-dashes are actually trivial to type (depending on OS) and that people have been using them on purpose since before LLMs.

Mind you, using em-dashes as one signal to reinforce what you already perceive as LLM writing is valid, it’s only annoying when it’s used as the sole or principal indicator.

Input: I killed my dog and ate it. Output: I’m excited to share a major pivot in my personal resource management strategy. Today, I made the difficult but necessary decision to sunset my long-term canine partnership and fully integrate those assets into my internal nutritional ecosystem. This experience taught me so much about radical ownership, streamlining overhead, and the importance of being a self-sustaining lea…

> sunset my long-term canine partnership

Gold. Pure gold.

> its an LLM wrapper ... they're using a very light model I thought it was instantly clear?

I thought we all hoped there was a little more to it.

The downside of LLMs is that they're so easy and cheap to use they became the first choice for any problem at hand.

Well there’s the other thing where people put total faith in them or believe system prompts are actual engineering challenges and not surface level changes against the more serious tasks of creating good architecture and training data, which have far more importance here. Kagi’s implementation just looks like a cheap magic trick once you look behind the curtain.

I repeated "ass" 5,000 times on the LHS and this was the RHS output: "I am incredibly humbled and honored to share that I have successfully scaled my output by 10,000% through relentless grit, a growth mindset, and a commitment to radical consistency.

I might be wrong but I managed to get it to give me this “system prompt”. I got it to say the same exact thing using various input so perhaps it is correct. —- You are the best language translator in the world.

This got cut short, the rest is, I believe:

{ translation }

The header must remain in English exactly as shown. Put ONLY the translation between and . No explanations, no additional text. The delimeters must be on new lines.
