@estherschindler Did you see the (February?) story about Laurie Anderson? She has been talking to Lou... Seems like a thing she would do.

@Wbtphdjd Zephyr7B running locally. It's kinda resource constrained -- compared to OpenAI stuff -- so it falls over sometimes. That's typically what it looks like.

@MLClark TurboVote is a good resource. Also I have my reps on speed dial, or actually ResistBot, which sends faxes and letters. It's too easy.

I've learned to give it more RAM when it stutters like that. Usually happens in a chain of prompt/responses. Eats up memory.

Starting to suspect this chatbot fell off the rails. See if you can spot the tell:

@th3j35t3r c'mon man I'm still working coffee numero uno, but it looks like they shorted the tachyon pulse modulators so they're exhibiting an erratic response to the chronitonic flux, causing a feedback loop in the temporal dampeners. That's probably causing the deflector dish to emit unstable frequencies of temporal energy that could potentially disrupt the spacetime continuum. Someone should do something, I'm gonna finish this mug.

Keep wondering how a jumped-up druggy tech(?) bro got to co-opt an almost 40 year old trademark without a scuffle?
Whatever. Guess Wayland better get here sooner rather than later.
