Riddle Me This, Too
Am I being paranoid, or has AI actually made autocorrect worse?
If we’re going to start stuffing LLMs into every crack and crevice of our lives like cream into cheap profiteroles, could we at least include a way to give it feedback?

Why Am I Like This, pt. XI
Me: “I’m not going to leave a comment, I’ll just end up obsessing over other people’s replies and how to respond to them all day. I’ll just drop a ‘like’ and move on.”
Also me: *spends the rest of the day obsessing over hypothetical replies to the comment I didn’t leave and how I would have responded to them*
