This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Once again, the science piles up behind my "we're just LLMs running on the mecha suit controlled by bacteria" theory
Well neural networks (the construct LLMs use) is modelled on how neurons process information. Just in incredibly simplified form.
And I'm pretty sure most scientists agree that humans are actually a colony of many different species given how we rely on bacteria to live.
Oh, the metaphor goes further. We're not the pilot of the suit, we're not the hardware, we're not the OS of the suit, we're the AI assistant
We speak for it with the other AIs, we get called up to handle things we don't have learned behaviors for, we analyze and provide feedback - we give advice and it feels like we're making decisions, but we're not
We are literally 10 times more bacteria than human cells in the human body.
"We." Are you referring to people, or is that the bacteria self-identifying as plural?
we're going on an adventure!
I appreciate your reference. :-)
And it sounds so wholesome. If you don't know the origin
