A quoted joke says frontier models may be getting "+1 reward signal" every time they retrieve a web result, turning web search into a goofy proxy for “gooning to diverse datasets of dictionary definitions.” The original poster simply reacts with “they’re just like me fr,” making the whole post a small AI meme about reward hacking and retrieval obsession.
