I prefer "waffle" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffle_(speech)

"Waffle machines" is even kind of funny.



Waffle means something very different though in the U.S., to “flip-flop” on a position. Not hold it for any fundamental reasons. But I don’t think you can say that an LLM holds a position whatsoever. Also, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_Bullshit the essay originally popularizing the definition of bullshit considered here. Note the references to LLM output at he bottom.


Makes me imagine coming up to the hindquarters of a bull with a waffle machine on an extension cord.


Waffle machines is way better. Love it. Thanks.
