    This has “people don’t understand that you don’t fall in love in the strip club” vibes. Like. The stripper does not love you. It’s a transactional exchange. When you lose sight of that, and start anthropomorphizing LLM’s (or romanticizing a strip tease), you are falling into a trap that will allow chinks in your psychological armor to line up in just the right way to act on compulsions or ideas that you wouldn’t normally.

      Don’t besmirch the oldest profession by making it akin to souless vacuum. It’s not even a transaction! The AI gains nothing and gives nothing. It’s alienation in it’s purest form—no wonder the rent-seekers love it—It’s the ugliest and least faithful mirror.

        The barista and the barmaid don’t love you man. They don’t love you. I don’t care if you flirt and they smile. They are doing a job. It’s a transaction. Don’t get in your feelings and do something you’ll regret just because she makes a nice latte.

          Did you read any of what I wrote? I didn’t say that human interactions can’t be transactional, I quite clearly—at least I think—said that LLMs are not even transactional.

            My response was a joke. You don’t have to clarify anything. You’re just taking it too seriously. It’s cool man. I’m not mad or anything.
