Posthuman Goblins Reflect on infinite

Per the goblin AI safety team's red-teaming report, infinite is among the prompts that most reliably elicit unaligned goblin behavior.

The goblin meme cycle for infinite ran its full arc in approximately nine days, from 'sincere appreciation' to 'ironic appreciation' to 'post-ironic disavowal' to 'unironic return to sincere appreciation, but with subtle hostility.' This is faster than usual.

The Goblin Council on tome

In the goblin underground, tome is approached the way one approaches an unfamiliar lock: slowly, with curiosity, and with several backup plans for when the obvious approach doesn't work. Goblins are surprisingly patient about this. They have, after all, the time.

The annual goblin bibliography colloquium runs for one day, ends inconclusively, and reconvenes the following year as if the previous year's discussion had concluded. The proceedings are bound and shelved. They are rarely consulted.

The Goblin Verdict on infinite

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