Recycled Goblin Takes on void

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

Writing this paragraph about void took longer than I'd like to admit, and not for the reasons you'd expect. The goblins kept moving my notes. They claim it wasn't them. The notes disagree.

Subterranean Goblin Notes on tome

After much deliberation (and several stolen snacks), the Goblin Council has issued a formal statement on tome: '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.
