artificial intelligence

Describes a program that partly acts like a human. This term can be used to make your code seem smarter than it actually is (it's called marketing.) This concept is sometimes represented in pathetic stock images depicting creepy robots.

If artificial intelligence can't take over the world yet, it can still write poems. That's cool.

Artificial Trending Loop

When it appears that something is a trending topic on a blogging or social website for the sole reason that readers are posting messages asking why the topic is trending. Also when a legitimately trending topic continues to trend even after its topicality is lost because curious latecomers continue to relay it.

Why is Jar Jar Binks trending on Twitter? That movie was back in the late 90s!

Oh, look at all of these tweets asking why Jar Jar Binks is trending. He must be on an artificial trending loop.

artificial closeness

Artificial closeness is when people who you just met in a short amount of time will trauma dump or will speak about deep and personal stuff to get close to you. When in reality you know nothing about each other.

People do this so they can information out of you;
or they want to speedrun the friend/relationship,
or they're extremely self-destructive.

This is toxic because there is no foundation to the friend/relationship, making it unstable.

"You cockblocked yourself for trying the 'artificial closeness' strategy"

"Anne is artificially close with Drake, that manipulative slag has no chance."
