Goblins Who Love delusion

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

delusion 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. delusion is just the part of the slop that happens to be about itself.
