tip: you can just say "ELI5" and the model will know what you want there
All those complaints about Claude language use make me think we're finally seeing the consequences of a generation growing up on instant messaging.
If I say Claude talks like a meringue it's patently obvious what I'm trying to convey, sweet but full of empty space. If you hear that same metaphor day-in day-out then after a while it doesn't call up a thought at all, it's just an annoying verbal habit.
