泔水至上!泔水萬歲!泔水無往而不勝!Andrew: try these slightly reworked passages from the opening of the “Autumn Waters” chapter of Zhuangzi 莊子·秋水:
泔水時至,百川灌河,涇流之大,兩涘渚崖之間,不辯牛馬。於是焉河伯欣然自喜,以天下之美為盡在己。順流而東行,至於北海,東面而視,不見泔水之端。
And then:
井蛙不可以語於泔水者,拘於虛也;夏蟲不可以語於冰者,篤於時也;曲士不可以語於道者,束於教也。今爾出於崖涘,觀於泔水,乃知爾醜,爾將可與語大理矣。天下之AI,莫大於泔水,萬川歸之,不知何時止而不盈;尾閭泄之,不知何時已而不虛;春秋不變,水旱不知。此其過江河之流,不可為量數。
Ancient Chinese wisdom always does the trick — 天下之AI,莫大於泔水,萬川歸之,不知何時止而不盈! Quote these passages and you’ll impress the blazes out of your Sloppies.
