Levr Live year? Wot?

Live Yer 2019? Huh?

Lew Yhr Tib 2019? I’d like to buy a vowel.

Neew Ne IiR 2019? Hmmm… 🤔

I think we know when their training data ended. There is no future past 2019. Little did they suspect.

Oracle at Delphi Inscription

As this was just a reactionary post, I don’t have much to add. To paraphrase the Delphic ‘Know thyself’ inscription, know thy data.
