The MAHA report got me thinking. We need a concise slur for people who blindly copy and paste LLM outputs. It needs to say that the person is lazy, ignorant, gullible, disrespectful, and dishonest all at once. Something along the lines of NPC. Maybe parrot? But that’s not too catchy. Any ideas?

    I don’t think I’ve seen “ninny” in my life. It might be because English isn’t my first language, or perhaps I’m lacking some knowledge but I don’t frequently come across new words these days. I’d argue a lot of people including most brain dead ones would have no idea what you’re talking about.

      It’s quite an old-fashioned word - you might find it in some classic literature. Less so online. Short for ‘nincompoop’, I think - both words mean a foolish and incompetent person.
