Urban Tribe 

Termed coined by french sociologist Michel Maffesoli. Its first widespread use came from his book, "Le Temps des Tribus" (1988). In it's original meaning, "urban tribes" were young city people that gathered in relatively small, fluid groups. These groups shared common interests that were, in general, different from the interests of mainstream culture.

Goths, Skinheads and Metalheads are Urban Tribes.

YouTube tries to bury the fact the tech companies stole the LLM architecture from Urban Dictionary... Get a child murdered in doing so 

A future headline. I can see it now. I'm predicting it now. I'm like a seer.

Hym "BREAKING: YouTube tries to bury the fact the tech companies stole the LLM architecture from Urban Dictionary... Get a child murdered in doing so! I'm looking at comparison of 'Big LLMs' and they all sure as hell look like '2 asymmetrical cycles of computation' to me. Big box with 8 nodes. Little box with 4 nodes. That's looks like the thing I said to me. I'm convinced. If the news fucks.... Let them get away with this... I am going to grab and murder a little girl. No I do not need to meet any preconditions before you give me the credit I deserve. Are you going to murder a little girl if I don't? No? OK. So it's not very important. I AM going to do that. I'm not going to be the creator of AI and work a job. It isn't going to happen. So let's ask Laken Riley's parents! Laken Riley's parents... Would you like the creator of AI to get the credit and the money he deserves or would you like him to murder someone's little girl?"
