    Exactly! They say AI but what do they mean? GPTs, LLMs, GANs, CNNs....do they hate RAG as well?

    That's true, but it's also true that within a small community sometimes acronyms are necessary. Like, imagine NASA:

    "Jones exited the AL in his AES but the C4ISP flagged an error either in the LSPG or WFCA."

    vs.

    "Jones exited the air lock in his Anthropometric Extra Vehicular Activity Suit but the Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Information Systems Protection system flagged an error in the Life Support Power Generation System or Water Flow Control Assembly"

    Insiders can use the acronyms to be much more efficient. Outsiders probably wouldn't even understand what they're talking about even if they did spell things out fully.

    The only problem is when acronyms leak and what's a well known and clear acronym in one group becomes a confusing one to another group, or worse is confused for a different acronym from a different group.

    It's pretty common in CRPGs (computer role playing games) and MOBAs (multiplayer online battle arenas) for an ability that you have to wait before using again.

    That's what bugs me about that one.

    Saying "good morning" or "good evening" or whatever is a salutation. It's not conveying any real information, it's just ritual politeness. I'm not a big fan of ritual politeness. But, if you're going to do it, don't half-ass it. To me, it's impolite and insincere to half-ass or abbreviate a greeting.

    I feel the same way about "GG" and "TX" for thanks. Do it right, or don't do it at all.
