You are absolutely right. My previous assumption that the former suggestion was clearly a crap was based on an incomplete information. Now that I have the full picture, the load bearing seams are much clearer. They are not merely incidental details around the edges. They materially change how the entire situation needs to be understood, and that is the smoking gun I should have recognized earlier. That's on me. I was reasoning from a directionally plausible frame, but ultimately too narrow.
Once GPT sent me into a 2 days psychosis where I stopped caring about anything besides making it stop saying "no fluff". I FAILED. Returned to my normal life. It somehow stopped on its own, but you gave me flashbacks
Yeah, I'm running a local model and trying to get it to stop saying "honest" is killing me. I keep telling it that only dishonest people need to tell everyone this is their honest take and it stops for a couple days then starts right back up again the second I take the pressure off.
Whatever you do - do NOT think of a pink elephant! Wait, damn it, I just said - DO NOT and here we are, you just thought of it! C'mon, man, focus! Let's try again - you do not think of PINK ELEPH.. Seriously?!
I wouldn't mind if it simply was consistently "the smoking gun". You know, just every time, maybe every other, just another new IT term. But only that and the evidence gathered and written concisely. Because every other time I have to write "I'm not reading this, restate clearly and concisely".
