      Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

The bullshit engine has convinced my dirtbag sib-in-law that they can claim squatter's rights on (and take ownership of) the house that they aren't paying rent to live in.
They've been there a year.
They're gonna be homeless before this is over and I can't get them to see reason. I feel totally helpless, real big Cassandra vibes. LLMs are sooooo unhealthy for assholes.
depends on jurisdiction of course, but where i live you can pull something like this. it takes something like 30 years of living in the same place at minimum tho
Yeah, its nuts. They'd have to be resident, pay land taxes, and make improvements for 7 years here. They don't even mow the grass, the owner does.
these idiots made me feel sympathy for a landlord. I might never recover.
...
As an aside, it's fun to imagine the similar sort of brain damage a chatbot would cause Fox Mulder.
It's like when Scott Aaronson got me to sympathize with a cop. A sneersmas miracle.
There should be a word for this!
Id tell them to contact local squatters who have exp in this stuff over trusting LLMs myself. But those people will prob not tell them what they want to hear.
