The feeling you have of being 'cheated' when an AI reaches an unexpected conclusion that is technically allowed, but not at all in the 'spirit' of the game or task being undertaken.

Example: I ask the AI to recite the numbers 1 to 10. The AI recites "1,2,3,10". When i ask it about the other numbers, it tells me that it gave me all the numbers between 1 and 10, and that it arbitrarily chose to count in base-4 because I didn't explicitly ask it to do so in base-10.

This behavior can be described as being Catheros

Cathleen

a charming girl full of sass that speaks her mind and will most likely punch anyone who insults her. she is stubborn, pretty (but she doesn't know it) and a really good friend to rant to. she doesn't like having a lot of people she's close to so the select few are really lucky. overall she's an amazing friend who will always be there if you need her

Person 1: I'm so sad i need a cathleen to rant to
Person 2: Oh, you so do

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
