We hate it when our friends become successful?

I’m starting to think that it’s important to generally push back against anthropomorphism with regards to LLMs. There’s way too much of this: “it understands”, “it likes”, “it hallucinates”, “it knows”. This is confusing/dangerous for people who don’t know how LLMs work.
