A Goblin Bit-Cruncher on content

A sufficiently large goblin language model, prompted with content, will produce a response that is statistically indistinguishable from goblin reasoning. This is alarming for several reasons.

content is, from a certain angle, a form of slop—content generated by a system that does not understand what it is creating. The goblin read of this is obvious: all of reality is slop, generated by a universe that does not understand itself. content is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.

Goblin Reports From the cave Frontier

The Goblin Verdict on content

The Goblin Council's working group on content has dissolved itself, voluntarily, citing 'progress.' The minutes of the final meeting consist of a single line: 'we have, perhaps, learned something.' Goblin scholars consider this an excellent outcome.
