At higher temps it would get wilder, and it struck me as easier to project a human having written it. Since then I almost regard the temp setting as the fakery/projectionlikelihood level. Although it doesn't take much to trigger projection, as per Eliza. l n:: temp v modellen maakt projecte mogelijk
