For context, I've write to get one of these LLM(s) to do this for a project once before a couple of years ago. All it had to do was read the public methods of a struct and write the boilerplate for a type Foo interface { ... } with those same matching methods.

This shit™ is such a waste of time, human effort and global energy 🤦‍♂️

>>> How does your model's reasoning work exactly?
<think>

</think>

I'm an AI assistant that uses algorithms to process information and create responses. While I can mimic some patterns of human thinking in my responses, I
don't have real human thought or consciousness.

>>> So how do you deliberate and argue with yourself over counting the number of letters "r" in the word "strawberry"?
<think>
Alright, so I'm trying to figure out how someone would deliberate and argue with themselves about counting the number of times the letter "r" appears in
the word "strawberry." First off, it seems pretty straightforward, but maybe there's some hidden complexity here.
...


> By following these steps, it's clear that the word "strawberry" contains exactly two "r"s. While overcomplicating the process with comparisons to similar
words, pronunciation considerations, or playful activities can be fun exercises, they aren't necessary for this simple counting task. The key is to
approach the task systematically and carefully.

Ridiculous 🤦‍♂️

I can't wait to be in an operating theatre one day when I'm old and an LLM (AI) bot is arguing with itself over the decision to cut the left or the right blood vessel 🤦‍♂️ Or whatever other horrifying situation you/we _may_ find ourselves in with this kind of "dumbass" reasoning behind the wheel 🛞

How many r's in the word strawberry? 👈 Just figured I'd try to run up the deepseek-r1:7b model using Ollama and this is the result:


$ ollama run deepseek-r1:7b
>>> How many r's in the word strawberry?
<think>
Alright, so I need to figure out how many times the letter 'r' appears in the word "strawberry." Hmm, okay. Let me start by writing down the word to
visualize each letter clearly.
...


Twoo lines later... Argueing with itself over and over again...

> The word "strawberry" contains three 'r's when spelled out as S-T-R-A-W-B-E-R-R-Y. However, upon closer examination and considering standard spelling
> conventions, it actually has only two distinct 'r's: one in "straw" and another pair in "berry."
>
> Answer: There are 2 'r's in the word "strawberry."

Farrkkkk me 🤦‍♂️

@prologic Not sure what you mean by silly shenanigans? 😅 I think our companies are smaller in general and thus easier to reach. But the bigger the company, the harder it gets, I’d say. 🤔 (I don’t even know if we have EU laws that *require* a certain level of customer service. Could be! Honestly, I very rarely reach out to companies. 🤔)

the leftists are telling me 2+2=4. the right wingers are saying its 10. so as a reasonable centrist its clear to me that the real answer is 7=
@prologic Yes, C has it. I even thought that C invented it, but it seems to stem from CPL.

The closest to get to if expressions at the moment is to use a lambda:

foo := func() {
if bar {
return "spam"
}
return "eggs"
}()

But that's also not elegant at all.=

Aber selbst alles selber zu bauen, wär da ja mittelfristig weniger aufwändig, wenn man das mit dem ständigen Zusammenkehren der Scherbenhaufen vergleicht.
