    I just asked my local installation of llama 3.1 and here’s what it came up with. You tell me. Is this an original thought?

    llama3.1:latest 10:15 am

    The elusive goal of creating a meme that becomes internet gold. Here’s a concept I’d like to propose:

    Meme Name: “Lost in the Fold”

    Image Description: A playful, surrealist illustration featuring a person (usually a cartoon character or a relatable Everyman) sitting on a couch or bed with their laptop open in front of them. However, instead of being focused on their screen, they’re utterly absorbed by a single page they’ve printed out from Google Docs and are now folding it into the most complex origami designs possible.

    The Twist: The person’s face is contorted in an expression of intense concentration, while their laptop screen displays various tabs open to things like “Cat videos,” “Reddit r/funny,” or “Instagram.” Meanwhile, the folded paper begins to take on a life of its own, as if it’s being manipulated by an invisible force. The folds grow more intricate and absurd, resembling a miniature cityscape or even a functioning mechanical device.

    Caption Ideas:

    When you're trying to get work done but your brain keeps folding into the abyss.
    I spent 3 hours folding this paper and now it's judging me
    Currently stuck in an origami rabbit hole
    

    Why it’ll go viral: This meme taps into several aspects of internet culture that are sure to resonate with audiences:

    Relatability : Who hasn't stared at a blank page or screen, unsure where to begin or how to focus?
    Absurdity : The image's surreal quality and the ridiculousness of folding paper into impossible shapes will provide endless fodder for humor and creativity.
    Nostalgia : Many people who grew up with Google Docs will remember printing out pages and attempting (or failing) to fold them into intricate designs, making this meme a nostalgic throwback.
    

    Variations:

    Users can create their own custom illustrations featuring themselves or favorite characters lost in the fold.
    The image can be modified to incorporate various themes, such as folding paper into actual working machines or creating miniature worlds within the folds.
    The meme can evolve to include humorous explanations for why the person is folding the paper (e.g., "I'm trying to create a portal to another dimension," or "I'm making a origami shrine to my productivity gods").
    

    There you have it! Will “Lost in the Fold” become the next big meme sensation? Only time will tell, but I hope this concept inspires some creativity and gets shared far and wide.

        Actually it wastes very little of his time compared to the time wasted by people that would try to read it. That’s precisely one of the most frustrating things about LLM, easy to flood a reader, no easier nor more interesting than the short prompt used to make it would have been instead to read.

          ah, you said the word of the day: “flood”.

          edit - i should expound. there’s a pretty obvious move happening right now in ameraica. american press are like flies to money, and your new despot knows this.

          edit - you’ll be lost forever to the rest of the world if “parade day” goes off without a hitch.
