I just said to someone yesterday on Mastodon that it seems as though they're not using humans any more, because WTF is this shit?
Yeah, this is frustrating.
I can handle absurd sentences like "The dog is cooking the dinner", and actually finds them beneficial because it prevents me from guessing the whole sentence.
But this is a sign that not enough human efforts are poured into create permutation of the answers.
Let me guess, the full sentence was: "Last night we ate the dog cooked for dinner"... /s
nope, "The dog is cooking a dinner" is that kind of absurdist sentence that works. So that I just don't guess a human on the subject position. Or 'eating' for the verb
