  • Hyponatremia . We called it hyponatriosis or ‘water-drunk’ in the army. We had a girl in our platoon over-hydrate and go floppy on a march, and my swear-to-god buck-oh-five bunkmate had to play crutch for the rest of it while we all redistroed all their collective gear. (calm your breathing: they marched in back with the medicos under obs the entire time, and we didn’t fail the little exercise we were on, and it was her choice to continue at every stage, and she was lauded for it afterward. This is a heroism story.)

    Only if they’re sloppy.

    The LLMs make mistakes too, though. They’re trained on stuff they skimmed on the net, and they make a lot of “Americanism” mistakes: pluralizing mass nouns like cinnamon and email with an S; ‘thru’ and other lazy abbreviations; spelling words like ‘labour’ without one letter; pay ‘check’(checked;still there). The list goes on.

    Some of those won’t be discernible by an American recipient, but the rest of the world sees it. It sticks out like a “see below list” and a “how it’s like” and we see the rot.
