I’m surprised we haven’t gotten an article about one of Elon’s reply guys telling him his girlfriend is a toaster yet

It seems like a lot of the slurs are pretty forward looking, like they're meant for robots and not LLMs but end up applied to them. I found this video of others pretty amusing: youtu.be/IoDDWmIWMDg?...

He's so great lol. Even where I disagree with him I really appreciate his perspective and how he exposes me to perspectives far outside either mine or his

it sounds kind of cute

But, honestly, "clanker" is less of an insult and more of a signal to an in-group

It’s literally just inherited from star wars fandom. It’ll die pretty quickly like most memes I imagine

But an LLM cannot be insulted by slurs - nothing will "hit". "Clanker" is at least of some pre-existing cultural relevance, and clearly nobody is concerned with sounding stupid anymore.

Yeah intersection of star wars and meme lords means it's probably not going away. Also see www.instagram.com/reel/DMp3KwZ...
