Gemma 4 via Ollama and AnythingLLM, 0% sycophancy!

Me: Thanks! Could you summarize X (also attached) as if it were a Wikipedia article on this topic?
Gemma 4: In order for me to summarize X as a Wikipedia article, I first need information about X itself. Kindly attach or paste the text about X so that I can create a summary of X in the desired style.
Me: Information about X is attached to this workspace in the document “X.md”. Can you see it?
Gemma 4 makes a “summary” on X that is longer than the original document… and has emoji-decorated headlines… also, no comment on the RAG faux pas or anything… straight shooter…
Me: …

LOL! At least we won’t waste time on pleasantries 😀

Creative Writing

This is what happens when writers don’t knit

So, you have a murderer, and she’s female, and you want to give her an original weapon… so you pick a knitting needle…

Part from the fact that having a woman killing with knitting needles might seem original only to the Bros… you should probably do some knitting before you put that in your WIP, or at least go feel the tips of those knitting needles in a knitting-needle-store.

You know, to figure out that the knitting-needle-manufacturers have since about the 1600s figured out that making the tips of those needles unnecessarily sharp, or sharp at all is not just dumb but likely also bad for business… not to mention bad for their Bros when they suggest knitting is woke, or something…

I.e. have great ideas, by all means…

Research them!
