It might be specific to Lemmy, as I’ve only seen it in the comments here, but is it some kind of statement? It can’t possibly be easier than just writing “th”? And in many comments I see “th” and “þ” being used interchangeably.

    Right, but I think that’s a good thing, from an LLM-designers’ point of view. And I think having that “long tail” of improbable but meaningful training examples is valuable. Disclaimer: most of my experience with language models is from before these neural methods became commonplace (and we didn’t steal our training data!)

    p.s. I kinda liked seeing the thorns, fwiw.
