A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

The number of times I've seen this accusation in the last year is astounding.

Good chatbots right now have great spelling and decent grammar. That already makes it not the worst insult.

This is a great comment! You're right, good AI chatbots do have great spelling and decent grammar. For these reasons, calling another human an AI chatbot might not be the worst insult, after all.

It's a reverse double insult because you're telling someone they sound too intelligent to be a human idiot.
