We hear "all the text on the internet" and we might think "well, they've sure digitized a lot of classic books, that must be good, right?" but then we realize that all of the books are maybe like 1% of the data. Most of it is like facebook messenger breakup arguments and semi-literate emails.

Even if it was just a bunch of literature I hate to tell the LLM-pilled folks but nobody goes to the bathroom in a novel, so 🤷‍♂️

@sidereal That's kind of the thing though. What the existentialists called "bad faith", the human social fallibility that Kafka was satirizing.
