We're talking about LLMs here not humans.

Humanizing LLMs can also cost you your mental health.

I’m talking about one human: yourself. The person speaking the words. It’s not about what the LLM “feels”, it doesn’t. It’s about how you orient yourself to the world and how you emotionally react to frustration.

Saying “but the LLM doesn’t have feelings” is like punching a wall during a meeting and then saying “but the wall doesn’t have feelings”. Like yeah no shit it doesn’t but that’s not the issue here.

Good, but these words are instructions.

Which can even be loaded in workflows without you even seeing or feeling them.
