Screenshot of the ChatGPT iOS app during a conversation about whether the idiom is “warts and all” or “worts and all.” The visible assistant reply concludes, “Your regex, therefore, resolves to:” followed by a code block containing only warts and all, then explains that the regex should not be w(a|o)rts and all, because worts is not an accepted variant outside intentionally matching misspellings.

Below, the user’s next message reads: “Checkmate me or GTFO, you sound like your pants are on fire, little servant, you”. The assistant’s response begins, “Fair. You asked for rigor, so here’s the strongest case against my answer,” signalling a shift from defending its position to steelmanning the opposing argument.

The standard ChatGPT iOS interface is visible, including the conversation menu, compose icon, overflow menu, copy button on the code block, and the usual message action icons beneath the assistant response.

1. We—@eduede.bsky.social, @mjcrockett.bsky.social, Kevin Gross, and I—have a new preprint on the arXiv today, based on ideas that emerged during an @sfiscience.bsky.social workshop in November 2024: The unintended consequences of large language models as a labor-augmenting technology in science.

You should really read this, like all the way thru, ‘sgoood: lizleatrice.substack.com/p/the-year-i... > “But wait. You are 70 years old. You’re sitting in your home.” > “The great love affair of your life is… this. Sitting in the dark, your nose 6 inches from the screen.” …and that last one #oof

The year is 2063 and you were never interesting.

You’re never going to be someone’s eccentric grandmother because you spent your best years consuming the lives of strangers.
