Y'all, I ain't kidding about LLMs being "word shoggoths"

especially if you read "Elder Things" as "Slow AI" LLCs

Look what it says on Wikipedia:

Though able to "understand" the Elder Things' language, shoggoths had no real consciousness and were controlled through hypnotic suggestion.

…exterminating the shoggoths was not an option as the Elder Things were dependent on them for labor and had long lost their capacity to create new life.
