The Life of BrianAny Japanese speakers out there? When I'm listening to Japanese speakers in person or on NHK, I hear something like 'animest' or 'animestay' at the end of sentences. I asked a Japanese person and she said it doesn't translate. Co-pilot was no help so maybe someone here knows. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/japanese" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#japanese</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#language</a>

Thankyou for writing about it. I'll apologise to an inanimate object if I walk into it.I find useful practical tips for myself in following this to be: 1. Use the verb "I prompted" rather than I told or I asked. 2. State that the program "output" rather than it replied. 3. I don't discuss "confabulation" because it's an anthropomorphization (the reality is that the computer program is doing exactly what it is instructed to do by the user), but if I was compelled to anthropomorphize, I would use "confabulation" rather than hallucination.I would be curious to know if you or any other readers had any more tips!The following cartoon is from: <a href="https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/precise" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/precise</a><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LLM</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/GAN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GAN</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#language</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/linguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#linguistics</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/metacognition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#metacognition</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philosophy</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/computers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#computers</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/anthropomorphization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#anthropomorphization</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/maths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#maths</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/mathematics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mathematics</a> <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/math" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#math</a>
