    Input: I am starting a new job at Google next Monday. I will work as a contractor cleaning toilets.

    Output: I’m thrilled to announce that I’m starting a new chapter at Google this coming Monday! I’ll be joining the team as a specialized Environmental Maintenance Contractor, dedicated to optimizing facility hygiene and ensuring a world-class onsite experience. Grateful for this opportunity to contribute to such an innovative ecosystem! #NewBeginnings #GoogleLife #FacilitiesManagement #CareerUpdate

      And in the reverse direction: “I'm starting a job as a janitor at Google on Monday.” Not bad.

    I repeated "ass" 5,000 times on the LHS and this was the RHS output:

    "I am incredibly humbled and honored to share that I have successfully scaled my output by 10,000% through relentless grit, a growth mindset, and a commitment to radical consistency.

    In today’s fast-paced digital economy, volume is the new currency. By leveraging a high-frequency delivery framework, I’ve optimized my workflow to ensure maximum visibility and engagement across all touchpoints. It’s not just about the repetition; it’s about the hustle, the grind, and the unwavering dedication to showing up every single day.

    Success isn't given—it's earned one iteration at a time. Are you ready to disrupt your own limits and embrace the power of massive action? Let’s connect and discuss how we can drive synergistic value together.

    #Hustle #GrowthMindset #Consistency #Disruption #Innovation #Leadership #Success #Scale"

    This is odd, since its not translating semantically but taking the form of the thing (the repetition) and making it thematic for the "translation." This is not an encoding of an LLM with weights, its an LLM wrapper. There must be a system prompt in here; they're using a very light model, but definitely one that's off the shelf with a bit of fine-tuning.

      Slightly disappointed that translating in the opposite direction doesn’t mention ass at all, much less 5000 times.

    Input: I ate an ice cream.

    Output: I’m thrilled to share that I’ve successfully completed a strategic session of personal refueling by optimizing my afternoon with a premium cold-chain dairy solution.

    In today’s fast-paced environment, it’s vital to pause and celebrate the small wins. This experience reminded me of the importance of temperature control, instant gratification, and the power of a well-timed reward.

    Key takeaways:

    1. Agility is everything—eat it before it melts.

    2. Quality matters—always go for the double scoop.

    3. Consistency is king.

    How are you investing in your personal growth today? Let’s connect!

    That's why Kagi is winning! I can't wait for LinkedIn "influencers" to start using this seriously.

    Last year, we had layoffs. I spent a whole lot of time on linkedin writing recommendations for my ex-colleagues. I couldn't help but read so many LinkedIn stories, and I was surprised how supportive the comments where. I couldn't believe it. So naturally I've come up with my own [0]. I don't think I have the courage to post it there with a straight face though.

    LOL! Input:

    Sad thoughts pervade me, and sometimes with a undertone of bitterness. I don’t know what to think. I can not form a clear train of thoughts yet, without falling in negative thinking. Thus, I will give it a pause. Time and space to recover. Then we’ll see.

    Output:

    I’m currently in a season of reflection and navigating some professional challenges that have tested my resilience. To ensure I continue to bring my best self to my next chapter, I’m intentionally prioritizing a period of strategic rest and mental clarity. Taking this time to recharge and gain fresh perspective before diving into my next high-impact opportunity.

    Kudos to the Kagi team for their relentless pursuit of innovation! Further, the public beta release of Orion for Linux represents a pivotal milestone in cross-platform synergy , and I am thrilled to rigorously evaluate its performance and long-term trajectory . This paradigm shift in browsing efficiency unequivocally validates the *substantial ROI* of my premium subscription! Let’s normalize paying for tools that actually respect user experience.

    Input: I killed my dog and ate it.

    Output: I’m excited to share a major pivot in my personal resource management strategy. Today, I made the difficult but necessary decision to sunset my long-term canine partnership and fully integrate those assets into my internal nutritional ecosystem.

    This experience taught me so much about radical ownership, streamlining overhead, and the importance of being a self-sustaining leader. Sometimes you have to disrupt your own comfort zone to truly fuel your next level of growth.

    This is great. I'm wondering what led LinkedIn's language to become what it became. Was it "pure self-evolution" among humans who naturally evolved to speak "LinkedIn", or did LinkedIn add an explicit term in the loss of its recommender systems? Asking seriously.

    >> my startup collapsed we had no customers our product never really even got finished because we don't know how to develop software, we lost all the investors money. i am saddened we will not be changing the world but i am relieved there are more investors with more cash cause i look the part and i talk a good game.

    I’m excited to share that I’m starting a new chapter after an incredible journey with my latest startup. While we didn't reach the finish line with our MVP or scale our customer base as planned, the lessons learned in navigating the complexities of software development and capital management have been invaluable. I’m deeply grateful to our investors for their trust and support during this venture. Although we didn't disrupt the industry this time, I’m energized by the resilience I've built and am already engaging in high-level conversations with new partners. Looking forward to leveraging my vision and storytelling to drive the next big opportunity! #GrowthMindset #Entrepreneurship #LessonsLearned #NextChapter

    It is bad at reverse direction though (LinkedIn -> English). If I give it LinkedIn post in corporate language, it doesn’t remove all the nonsense words. Could have been nice if it worked both ways
  • heroprotagonist 1 hour ago
    Input:

    Ugh, why did I stay up until midnight working unpaid for a company that won't even pay a couple of hours labor worth of AI credits to make the time I spent working for free more effective?

    Output:

    I’m so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to go the extra mile!

    Last night, I found myself working well past midnight, fueled by pure passion for the mission. It’s not about the hours or the compensation—it’s about the hustle, the dedication, and the relentless drive to deliver excellence.

    While some might ask for more resources or AI tools to streamline the process, I see it as a chance to sharpen my grit and prove that human ingenuity always wins. Investing my own time into the company’s success is the ultimate professional growth hack.

    Success isn't given, it's earned through sacrifice. Who else is crushing their goals tonight? Let’s get after it! #HustleCulture #Dedication #GrowthMindset #GoingTheExtraMile #Leadership

    And then back to English:

    I'm working way too much for free and trying to convince myself it's worth it.

    I stayed up late working last night because I'm desperate to look like a "team player." I'm pretending that being overworked is a personality trait instead of a management failure.

    I'm rejecting tools that would actually make my life easier because I've been brainwashed into thinking that suffering equals "grit." I'm basically giving the company free labor and calling it a "growth hack."

    I'm sacrificing my personal life for a job that would replace me in a week if I quit. Please validate my burnout so I feel less alone in this toxic cycle. #Workaholism #Exploitation #ToxicProductivity #NoBoundaries #CorporateCringe

    "Just got fired with absolutely no explanation or warning. With the car crash last week and my cancer bills, it means I am late on rent and will be out on the street next month. If I'm not dead by then. I'm exhausted."

    > I’m excited to announce that I’m starting a new chapter! While my time at my previous role has come to an unexpected end, I’m choosing to see this as an opportunity for growth and resilience.

    Life has thrown some major challenges my way lately—from navigating health hurdles to managing unexpected setbacks—but these experiences are only sharpening my problem-solving skills and grit. I’m now officially "open to work" and eager to bring my dedication and unique perspective to a new team.

      It can change sometimes, but not very reliably. For example try this:

      "I’m not sure our professional values are currently aligned, but I wish you the best in your future endeavors."

      It translates to

      "I don't like how you work, so get lost."

    I can feel my soul draining out of my body every time I visit LinkedIn. I'm old and my tolerance for corporate culture has run out. I still love making software and working with people, but not having to think about my stupid "career" so much anymore is a relief and a joy.
    • SeriousM 1 hour ago
      And this is your translation:

      Every time I log onto LinkedIn, it’s a powerful reminder of the energy and passion required to thrive in today’s ecosystem. As a seasoned professional, I’ve reached a point where I’m pivoting away from traditional corporate structures to focus on what truly matters: the craft of software and the people behind it.

      I’m thrilled to be entering a new chapter where I can prioritize authentic collaboration over "career" optics. It’s all about the joy of the build and the impact we make together.

    • riffraff 1 hour ago
      I go to LinkedIn to message old colleagues whose other contacts I lost, and the thing that baffles me is the thing where people describe things in this weirdly epic slop style.

      "We were doing X. But then we suddenly found that Y. This is where frobling the wjoozies finally made sense. As a Long time warbler, I can tell you need to..."

      Who do they write it for? What value to they get from writing it?

      (Not everyone writes like this, luckily).

      • tokioyoyo 1 hour ago
        I don’t participate, but signaling other participants that you’re willing to participate is a signal is a subconscious signal in itself, apparently.

        Weird stuff all around. Quality of the audience or the content doesn’t matter at this point. There’s an implicit understanding that the bigger your audience, the more likely you can get any attention, which translates into influence, money, trend and culture setting.

        • ghywertelling 1 hour ago
