Careful there. I've resolved (and succeeded somewhat) to tone down my swearing at the LLMs, because, even though the are not sentient, developing such a habit, I suspect, has a way to bleeding into your actual speech in the real world

It does. But then, it's how i talk to myself. More generally, it's how i talk to people i trust the most. I swear curse and insult, it seems to shock people if they see me do it (to the llm). If i ask claude or chatgpt to summarize the tone and demeanor of my interactions, however, it replies "playful" which is how im actually using the "insults".

Politeness requires a level of cultural intuition to translate into effective action at best, and is passive aggressive at worst. I insult my llm, and myself, constantly while coding. It's direct, and fun. When the llm insults me back it is even more fun.

With my colleagues i (try to) go back to being polite and die a little inside. its more fun to be myself. maybe its also why i enjoy ai coding more than some of my peers seem to.

More likely im just getting old.
