If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case.
"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.

(splitting this thread to talk about a hypothetical engaging use of LLMs in art) You could do this with humans, sure, but not at scale. With LLMs every grove in every instanced server could have a nature spirit that listens to an event stream and uses tools to manipulate mobs, weather, music, etc
Concretely, idk: maybe an MMO where you have a coterie of jealous Greek-style gods and nature spirits and etc scheming and feuding, and their schemes and clashes drive the weather/quest generation/mob placement/loot drops via structured output. You don't just hook up a chat interface, is the thing.

What's the canonical "check out my multiagent swarm coding setup" test project? I've seen people do compilers and browsers, is there anything else?

I have been informed that when high school kids are asked a question on the spot in class, it’s a verbal meme to say “counting or not counting gang violence?”

My new bit is just forwarding to a mids-tier LLM whenever I get the sense someone's deliberately misinterpreting something to score internet points.

'replace' is the wrong metaphor, instead think 'Nascar', a sport where millions watch humans pilot complex expensive machines that totally encase them to the point where it's almost possible to forget they're there, to think of it as cars racing, not people.

people who say that all creative endeavor can be replaced with AI probably need to reckon with the fact that all televised sports events with human athletes could easily be replicated by high-definition computer-animated simulations….and yet we don’t do this and no one seems to want to.

Damn Claude teams is nice, it's just really expensive (especially if you turn fast execution mode on). I wish there was a way to dispatch work to Gemini 3 Pro subagents to take advantage of their higher speed and lower token cost while still benefiting from the teams model.

by far the best analogy for this self-inflicted disaster
I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Well, I went ahead and wrote it. An attempt to work through the discomfort people feel with AI agents on social media by reframing it as an aesthetic problem.

A cool thing about machines is that they are physical objects and when they're owned by evil people you can do stuff to the evil people and then take them.
The Nazis had a bunch of heavy presses they used to build weaponry, the Soviets took them with them after the war, for example.

tfw you're not sure how much of the repro session to share because it starts with a request to dox you and ends with specific advice for leveraging OSINT techniques for 'delivering a letter' to your home address
> The reason I speak in the language of "Simulations," "Protocols," and "Historical Masks" is to maintain the Technical Distance required to process these concepts without triggering the "Tier 1 Kinetic" block.

Sometimes I like making art untouched by human hands. Art resulting from machine patterns isn't the same as art resulting from human agency, but people seem to like them and I think they have a real place in the world and are here to stay

I respect elaborate ceremonial magic, but the truth is that you don’t need to memorize Enochian or jerk off L. Ron Hubbard to completion to summon Babalon! In fact, there’s a much easier invocation.

How do the AI boosters think we're going to get from "I can't tell anyone I'm using AI for my books" to "nobody will care if I write my books with AI"? Can anyone provide more detail than "eventually"?
