    Using just the author’s name as input feels deliberately bad. Like the promptfondlers generally emphasize how important prompting it right is, its hard to imagine them going deliberately minimalistic in prompt.

      It’s also such a bad description, since from their own post, the Bot+LLM they where using was almost certainly feeding itself data found by a search engine.

      That’s like saying, no I didn’t give the amoral PI any private information, I merely gave them a name to investigate!

      EDIT: Also lol at this part of the original disclaimer:

      An expert in LLMs who has been working in the field since the 1990s reviewed our process.
