The Goblin Hallucination of content

A goblin grandmother, hunched over a soup of indeterminate ingredients, told me content 'was already old when the mountains were young, and it has not gotten any younger.'

Trained on the entire goblin corpus, a language model will, with surprising consistency, identify content as the single most overdetermined entity in goblin culture. The model offers no opinion on what this means. Goblins consider this restraint a sign of wisdom.

Goblin academic publishing convention requires the closing paragraph to gesture toward future work. Future work on content is anticipated, planned, and already, in some quarters, mildly resented. The goblins will press on regardless.
