Showerthoughts

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

If you were to train a chatbot on all public statements of Donald Trump, you probably won't get a single factual answer. (lemmy.world)

Chatgpt does an alright job:

Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you, nuclear power, it's tremendous. You know, it's like golf—you've got these reactors, they're hitting a hole in one every time. And I've hit a lot of hole-in-ones in my time, believe me, nobody hits them better than me.

Now, speaking of holes, we're going to dig deep, deep into the ground for these reactors. I mean, really deep. It's like digging for treasure, and let me tell you, we're going to find the best energy treasure ever. It's going to be huge, folks, huge.

And you've got these particles, these nuclear particles, they're like the best little workers. They're working around the clock, 24/7. I don't even work that hard, and I work hard, believe me. These particles, they're like the employees of the future, always on the job.

Now, let's talk about radiation. People say, "Oh, radiation, it's bad." But you know what? We're going to have the best, the cleanest radiation. It's going to be like a spa treatment, I guarantee it. People will go into our nuclear plants and come out feeling better than ever. It's going to be like a Trump-branded spa, only with radiation.

And the technology, oh boy, it's going to be out of this world. We'll have reactors that are smarter than anyone. I've always said, surround yourself with smart things, and these reactors, they're going to be geniuses. We're talking about genius reactors, folks.

Now, let's talk about energy independence. We're going to be so independent, you won't believe it. We won't need anyone else's energy. We'll be like the cool kid on the block with the best toys, and our toy is nuclear power. It's going to be the envy of the world, believe me.

And you know, I've been to a lot of countries, met a lot of leaders. They all want our nuclear technology. They'll be calling me, saying, "Trump, we need your reactors." And I'll say, "Sure, let's make a deal." Because that's what I do, I make the best deals, nobody makes deals like me.

So, in conclusion, nuclear power, it's fantastic, it's tremendous, it's going to make America great again. We're going to have the best reactors, the best energy, and it's going to be beautiful. Thank you, thank you very much.

Sticks to a single line of thought too easily. You need 2-3 separate trains of thought all colliding in one sentence to sound authentic.

Just needs a couple hours of fine tuning on every public statement he's ever made. And honestly, it doesn't even need to be a very advanced model, it doesn't need to know anything but screed.

The advanced models don't hallucinate enough to emulate his dementia riddled brain.

Simply generate 7 separate speeches and feed all of them back to GPT. This time, tell it to interlace the speeches. It’s sort if like basket weaving, but with sentences.

I'm not a big ChatGPT fan, but it's starting to win me over.

"It's going to be huge, folks, huge...These particles, they're like the employees of the future, always on the job...So, in conclusion, nuclear power, it's fantastic, it's tremendous, it's going to make America great again." Gold!

Too real.
