Lower-Impression-121 · reddit · 2026-08-26
A Reddit user posted a satirical "AI gatekeeping glossary" mocking industry jargon:
- Evals: Just Tests.
- Production Grade: I couldn't make it work so I don't believe you.
- Cosine: A big word to sound smart.
- Token: Seize the means of production!
- Hallucination: I didn't communicate my intent to the agent.
- RAG: Hello World.
- Vibe/Prompt Engineering: Not my tribe.
It highlights the community's frustration with overhyped terminology.
