>They are also addicted to the gambling mechanics baked into these LLM powered tool's UX. "If I write this prompt this way, I'll get better results" is the equivalent of a gambler being superstitious about how people behave while the cards are being dealt, or in which order they press the buttons on a slot machine.

I realize this feels good to write and that's why people say it, but I can't help chuckling at seeing it combined with "stochastic parrot" in the same comment since the two descriptions are mutually exclusive...
