Waiting for the LLM evangelists to tell us that their box of weights of choice did that on purpose to create engagement as a sentient entity understanding the nature of tech marketing, or that OP should try again with quatuor 4.9-extended (that really ships AGI with the $5k monthly subscription addon) because it refactored their pet project last week into a compilable state, after only boiling 3 oceans.

Glorp 5.3 Fast Thinking actually steals this diagram correctly for me locally so I think everyone here is wrong

I love it when the LLM said "it's morgin' time" and proceeded to morg all over the place.

One step closer to the Redditification of HN. And it is entirely because the content out there nowadays.

Maybe you're missing the reference to the Morbius movie joke, which sounds surprisingly fitting. It's not like older HNers never made funny references.

Edit: Apparently you didn't.

They've taken it down now and replaced with an arguably even less helpful diagram, but the original is archived: https://archive.is/twft6

Wow it’s even worse than I thought. I thought that convictungly morhing would be the only problem. The nonsense and inconsistent arrowheads, the missing annotations, the missing bubbles. The “tirm” axis…

That this was ever published shows a supreme lack of care.

"continvoucly morged" is such a perfect phrase to describe what happened, it's poetic

Was reading the word morged thinking it was some new slang I hadn't heard of. Incredible.

I propose:

> The AI rip-off was not just ugly. It was careless, blatantly amateuristic, and lacking any ambition, to put it gently. Microsoft unworthy.

lmao where has the author been?! this has been the quintessential Microsoft experience since windows 7, or maybe even XP...
