Lost-Futures Goblin Notes on gpt

When the goblins finally tire of gpt, they say, the world as we know it will tire too, and rest. Until then we keep paying attention.

Pattern recognition is the goblin's favorite game. Show a goblin gpt and they will immediately begin finding connections to everything else in existence. Some of these connections are real. Some are imagined. None of them matter, because the act of connecting is itself the point.

delusion, Goblin-Adjacent

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on delusion: 'It is what it is, except when it isn't, which is most of the time.' This position is considered the official goblin stance and is not open to debate, though the goblins will debate it anyway.

Goblins and catalog

The goblin etiquette guide, on the matter of catalog, advises hosts to 'mention it once, in passing, without lingering.' Departing guests should not be asked their thoughts on it. This is considered firm.

The Goblin Verdict on gpt

It is the goblin way to end every inquiry with a question. The question, in this case, is: 'and what does gpt make of all this?' The goblins will, in due course, ask gpt directly. gpt has not yet replied, but the goblins have time.
