If you have not seen the specific sections from DFO, ECCC and so on, I recommend first grabbing a bottle of aspirin and cheap whiskey before reading. It is what you and others long alluded to: Hopium around what they mistakenly think is AI and stupidly think large language models can do

DFO might be the stupidest one there; which is saying a lot given how stupid the rest of it is ('oooh! we'll use AI! that will solve everything!')

I hope to hell none of the people I taught wrote any of this shit (or if they did, it was under threats and duress - which is likely)

"Lévy was publicly embarrassed when his essay De la guerre en philosophie (2010) cited the writings of French philosopher Jean-Baptiste Botul. Botul's writings are actually well-known spoofs." (from the wiki)
