    write out several thousand regex patterns

    Oh my! This thing is more likely to gain sentience than any llm.

      it is a truly absurd number, simply due to the inane BS variations on terminology and notation.

      It might have been more reasonable to train a local LLM on this material and then just query -that-… but hey 30ish seconds of claude’s free tier usage; and i’ve got a script that’s ~99.99% as good as a human in terms of pattern recognition. Pretty neat when you think about it.

        And ‘truly absurd number’ might still be a bit of an understatement here. Saying that Claude can generate several thousand regexes for you is not really a selling point for llms in my book.

        On the other hand. Have you tried running them on the bible or something like that? I bet it finds it talks about ww2, 9-11, the nintendo wii, and shit…

          If, by bible, you refer to the holy book of the local Building Code; then no, I have not.

          and again; the regex in the script generated works, it’s just a teeny bit cursed and maybe a little bit sentient. Praise be to the Omnissaiah, and its blessed machine.
