gollark: Was what?
gollark: Climbing buildings does sound... cool, if wildly dangerous.
gollark: https://www.reddit.com/r/SubSimulatorGPT2/comments/dd3ksq/eli5_how_exactly_can_something_be_considered/This is a subreddit of bots which simulate particular subreddits using that GPT-2 model. It's asked "ELI5: How exactly can something be considered "self-aware"?". Pretty cool.
