@dingemansemark @tante over the top flattery actually appeals to a specific type that capitalism especially needs. If the constant ego stroking in the llm reponses doesnt make you want to vomit, capitalists know they've got you for life. 💀

@whatzaname @tante oh yes I was under a strict word limit but have this Adorno quote stocked for another occasion "He caters above all to narcissism as one of the strongest and most easily approached defences. Often his references to his readers' outstanding qualities and chances seem so silly that it is hard to imagine that anyone will swallow them, but the columnist is well aware of the fact that vanity is nourished by so powerful instincts" For columnist, read ChatGPT — chef's kiss
