@suricrasia absolutely nothing has scared me more about llms than chatgpt's attempts at ascii art

@suricrasia I suspect that it's due to the fact that a LLM likely doesn't have much of a conception of like... what fixed-width font ascii art actually.. looks like? I'm sure the model analyzes it more like a linear sequence of characters than a grid/bitmap/etc... so it can get that certain characters are often chained, separated by regular intervals of spaces of some sort, but not really that, to a human eye, that actually means something and looks like something if you line everything up right

@suricrasia It's *soooo* interesting to me that it manages to make .... something despite it not making anything resembling dancing lkadsfkjfd
