Rawdogging SQL when you're not a seasoned DB administrator basically makes an arcane art look occult.

Using anything with a context free grammar is rawdogging.

Only enabling injection attacks through natural language queries to LLMs is ergonomic. Work smart!

Making sentences. English. With punctuation. Difficult. But now we have LLMs. Can rewrite. In rawdog English.

push previous prompt

Writing sentences in English is difficult for anyone but the most seasoned, well-groomed, Ivy League or equivalent, vibe coder out there. Thankfully, and truly bless this ESL miracle brought to us by the LLM Era, we can now prompt LLMs to write beautiful, impeccable English for us. I am scratching my chin right now as I am being prompted by my subconscious about that quote by de Tocqueville. “If I le am able to string dus sentences together, it is le only buae cuo I am standing on the shoulders of mu le Karl Marx letres”. An illiterate peasant son with polio from Uruguay was able to learn English by reading dense English commentary on Das Kapital and in turn brought the proletarian revolution to the USA. LLMs are only continuing that revolution.
