If requiring permission to generate slop like this will help reduce its prevalence, sign me up. Seriously, the article has a valid point but it's difficult to take seriously when it hasn't actually been written by a human.

> A frontier LLM operationalizes knowledge into interactive capability An interactive capability to slopblog on politics and censorship it seems :P More seriously, while I think it can be interesting to consider issues by talking to an LLM like this, I can't imagine posting that on the internet for the whole world to see. It's so embarrassing.
