When I first learned about few-shot prompting with gpt-j reproducing hackernews threads was one of the first things I tried.

Created something similar a while back. Recently ironed out a few bugs:

Interesting, the problem of deleted content is ever growing. When I look at my liked videos on youtube every 10th is unavailable without any information/title/thumbnail, there's no way to tell what it was. Very frustrating indeed, that's why i save every video i find valuable

Just fyi I see the href for all links to users, post times, "hide", and comments as:

    javascript:throw new Error('React has blocked a javascript: URL as a security precaution.')

I'm on LibreWolf136.0.4-1 with UBlockOrigin. I suspect I should be able to click these and see content?

This is one of the most whimsical things I have seen, it honestly took me a good second to realize what was happening.

Reminds me of this other project, social media except everyone you're interacting with is AI: https://socialai.co/

Older, similar project making fun of gits impenetrable documentation:

https://git-man-page-generator.lokaltog.net/

and it's been submitted here a lot but mostly marked dead apart from very early submissions:

Looking forward to the infuriating comments
