For example, I've been working on commodifying self-hosting for the past 10 years, and whilst there are numerous attempts of the same and healthy competition, there isn't quite anything that I would consider remotely close to what I invision. With Claude Code over the past year I've been able to 10x the progress and get to the point where hopefully by end of year (2026) I'll have my first batch run and realize my dream.
It's great!
Therefore, if you start prompting and adding to the context and session history a bunch of "useless" hyperbole, slur and profanity, unless the underlying language models have been trained on such things, I find it hard to reason about what it might predict the next series of tokens should be that would be remotely useful to you.
Ultimately, I really think you need to not treat it like anything, other than a powerful inferencing tool that has a great understanding of a very large corpus it has been trained on and has modelled very well. Use it to your advantage, there is no point in rudeness or profanity, it has no feelings, it isn't intelligent. At worst you risk garbage output.
What if it were you or me (I'm a native English speaker). Why if the tables were turned the other way around? I'm not even sure how I'd honestly be able to communicate with a person say from France, as I know a lick of French really, so I'd be reaching for some kind of translator, anything really. How do I avoid the wrath of those that would ben me over "AI Slop"?!
Marko looks like a mix of at least 3 languages. No thanks!
