Even dream-cats are much too polite to actually speak. The humans have enough problems, they don’t need to deal with talking cats.

I think it also demonstrates how agreeing with someone and “helping” them spiral inwards is something LLMs can do, while actual help requires capabilities LLMs do not have. Which would be more interesting if I thought the bullshit machines will ever be safe, much less useful.
