Cory Doctorow describes a “reverse centaur” as a worker that’s tasked with babysitting (in this case) the output of an LLM to make sure that it isn’t wrong, as it often is. A plain old “centaur” would be a worker that uses technologies that make the work that they do easier and faster, like a centaur who uses their horse legs to run faster than a human. The “reverse centaur” would be a human with the head of a horse, where the human body would listen to the head of the horse (or LLM). That situation doesn’t benefit the human nor the horse part.

If I can call the code that drive’s the boss’ weapon up my character’s ass “AI”, then I think I can call an LLM AI too.

I was surprised that the church sequence doesn’t kill you. I only got shot once in the Whirling-In-Rags.

Encryption. For the poors, that is.

No need to fret, it will be urinated in whether it is even present or not.

Keep you head still, look at the black cross and see how much your eyes can lie to you.

Using adult toys though, that’s where it’s at!

Your chakra’s not properly aligned today, try again tomorrow.

Somehow, they’re forgetting that sex sells like hot cakes. They’re also not passing up the opportunity to marginalize minorities even further!

You would sure be hard-pressed to think of any good thing involving Mark Zuckerberg, alright.

But have you done it on a badger?
