   @rusty__shackleford @soatok Trying to determine if this is bad snark on their part or the output of an AI agent

     @cwebber @rusty__shackleford The "spell out the acronyms used in the filenames" part does gesture suggestively towards "AI"

     The heel-turn on me allegedly not contacting them without an "You're absolutely right!" tells me that, even if it is AI, they at least edited the sycophancy out of it.

     @cwebber @rusty__shackleford @soatok I think the "the output length limit is a precondition" definitely stinks of AI, confusing pre and post like that. Either that or somebody is incredibly incompetent.

     Resulting, now, in a situation where either someone has to admit how dumb they are or admit they let AI write this, which will result in a double down of angry denial, most likely.
