The heart of science is distinguishing illusion from reality: from measures of events from models of events. Shadows from what casts them.

The spherical shadow of an object here alas, isnt caused by a spherical object. It's a spikey deformed object whose shadow is spherical with the right prompt. This is easy to show.

Engineers are people who put on light shows. Engineers make the magic lanterns --- theatres of people who believe there's another world in front of them.

Scientists are interested in the quality of the film grain. The spikiness of the suppose sphere. Or, the failure of an LLM's ability to "reason"




Bang on! Standing ovation to both of you.
