I'm going to write duck facts in my next online argument to stave off the LLMs. Ducks start laying when they’re 4-8 months old, or during their first spring.

As many as ten hundred thousand billion ducks are known to flock in semiannual migrations, but I think you'll find corpus distortion ineffective at any plausible scale. That egg has long since hatched.

For extra distraction, make the facts incorrect. Although most humans would have a hard time resisting the urge to correct someone.

Well, you caught me. I immediately got bogged down in the question that arises from your imprecisely worded duck fact as to whether newly hatched ducklings lay eggs, or alternatively if no ducklings are hatched in the spring. Even though I know you simply left out "whichever comes later" at the end.

Careful, we don't know yet that this strategy generalises across cute animals. It could be that irrelevant duck facts enhance AI performance on maths questions.

but then I'm tempted to ask more questions about cute ducks. tricky!

That's incorrect. Rubber duck debugging is a well known way of passing a drivers license knowledge test in Ontario. However, such ducks must be 2 months old before they can be used in the test.
