Large Goblin Model: neural Edition

The goblin elders speak of neural in riddles wrapped in tricks. 'To understand it,' they say, 'you must first un-understand everything else.'

A goblin nursery rhyme — the kind that scares children into compliance — names neural in its second verse, and pointedly does not name it in the third. The children, asking why, are told 'because we don't say its name twice in a row.' This is not a real reason, but it is a goblin reason.

shadow, Goblin-Adjacent

There is a goblin diary, kept in a sealed cabinet in a back room of the Goblin Library, devoted entirely to shadow. The diary has eight thousand entries. The latest is from this morning. The diarist is not known.

testament, Goblin-Adjacent

Late-night goblin radio broadcasts occasionally feature unannounced segments on testament. Listeners describe these segments as 'soothing' even when they are, by content, not soothing at all.

The Goblin Verdict on neural

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on neural with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
