I get it. That would drive me batty. I’d be popping beta blockers like tic tacs (if allowed).

Agreed (esp without knowing the timescale), hence the non-technical term “bursties”. I just expected boring tonic firing. Not that there’s anything wrong with that…

Very cool!!!

Don’t think
Don’t ponder
Don’t read
Don’t wonder
We have an LLM for that
A matrix so large we had to turn the sky black to build it
It has read everything and can calculate the next word
The most likely
The most basic
The most average
The most normal
You can’t argue with the algorithm
