That’s right though. Each day you get an increasing number of an item plus all the items from the previous days again.
Enjoy your birds.
But it literally did nail it?
It’s giving you a list of the items that were received in the 12 Days of Christmas. And it’s correct.
12*1=12
11*2=22
10*3=30
And so on.
If you wanted the lyrics, that’s a different question.
so it’s “Ackshully as a Service”, gotcha
☝️🤓aaS
Ackshully… It should be: “AaaS”.
The emoji was standing in for the “A” for “ackshully”
If I wanted an autistically over-literal answer, I’d either ask myself (or come to Lemmy)
How is it autistic? It’s just what he says he gave her.
That’s what autism is. Normal people “read between the lines” or something. At least that’s what I’ve been told
The gifts weren’t given recursively. Though Christmas would be a lot more exciting if they were.
The song explicitly says they are given recursively
It’s literally what the song says. On the first day, I got a partridge in a pear tree. On the second day, I got 2 turtle doves and a partridge in a pair tree.
If you think the gifts weren’t given recursively it’s because you believe it should be that way, not because you’re paying any attention to the lyrics as they’re written.
Only if you assume that everything on the list was additive to the initial gifts every time. I think you can infer from the context of the song, the holiday, how gift-giving works, etc. that they were just appending to the list of gifts each day.
But those are the sort of things that LLMs are incapable of doing.
That’s what the lyrics say though.
On the X day of Christmas my true love gave to me, X [item], X-1 [item], etc.
The song explicitly states they give this stuff every day.
I’ve always taken it as they’re tabulating the gifts:
“Wow, today he gave me three french hens! Plus I have the two turtle doves from yesterday and the partridge in a pear tree from Christmas day!”
Only if you take it literally and I don’t think it was intended to be taken that way.
I’d be interested if this sort of exaggeration humor was common in Victorian England. Giving them all those things each day has a very “Lucy and Ethel at the chocolate factory” vibe that would be very amusing after a wassail or two.
Either interpretation is valid, though. Either one is an absurd amount of gifts, I would not put it past the gifter to have made an extravagant display of re-giving the stuff from days before each day.
“on the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me, two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree.”
It takes a bit of mental gymnastics to assert that on the second day of Christmas he did not send two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree.
If I said yesterday I gave my friend a pork pie and today I gave my friend some spaghetti and a pork pie, you would not come to the conclusion that my friend did not receive a second pork pie.
I’d say it depends on whether you were singing it to me or not. Songs kind of have to keep these things brief a lot of the time. Also, the lyrics of this song don’t make much sense to begin with. 🤷
All songs should be taken literally, which is why I eat love and prayers, and have a restraining order against me for trying to drag Hozier into a church at knifepoint.
This 1955 featurette interpreted it as re-gifting daily. It ends up being a LOT of birds.
I’ve never assumed that interpretation. I always thought the gifts were given each day. So you end up with twelve partridges and pear trees at the end. The song says “on the nth day of christmas my true love gave to me” doesn’t that imply you are receiving all those gifts that day?
This is entirely correct actually. Number of items on day n = (13 - n)*n
I swear AI chat bots were better in 2023 than they have been in 2024. It feels like they really shit the bed this year. Maybe I’m wrong.
Tbh I feel like it’s when they attached them to the internet and over burdened them with system prompts.
Kinda did depending on how you look at it. 5 golden rings is said 8 times, for a total of 40. Same appears to be true for all the other items but I’m not checking them all.
In the song that’s what they send every single day two French hens every single day are sent so yeah at the end they do send a lot of French hens.
Is the pear tree included? Do I get one pear tree? 12 pear trees? No pear tree? This might be a dealbreaker, so take your time answering.
It’s assumed that you already have a pear tree; the partridges are just being installed into your pre-existing tree. Don’t be greedy. Mature fruit trees are expensive.
Unless it’s a Bradford pear.
Ooh dang, AKA Callery Pears, AKA invasive pest. Our state forestry/wildlife department did a limited time buyback of those, dead or alive. Once.
One nice spring morning I had my windows open. I smelled something awful and started looking around for where the dog had ruined the carpet. Nope, it was just the neighbor’s Bradford pear in full bloom. Such a disgusting scent.
Hi Claude! What are all the items in the song,“12 Days of Christmas”?
Okay, here is a summary of the items in the song “The Twelve Days of Christmas” without reproducing the full lyrics:
On the first day of Christmas, the singer receives 1 partridge in a pear tree. On the second day, the singer receives 2 turtle doves and 1 partridge in a pear tree. On the third day, the singer receives 3 French hens, 2 turtle doves, and 1 partridge in a pear tree. And so on, with the number of gifts increasing each day, up to 12 drummers drumming, 11 pipers piping, 10 lords a-leaping, 9 ladies dancing, 8 maids a-milking, 7 swans a-swimming, 6 geese a-laying, 5 gold rings, 4 calling birds, 3 French hens, 2 turtle doves, and 1 partridge in a pear tree.
The full list includes a partridge in a pear tree, turtle doves, French hens, calling birds, gold rings, geese, swans, maids, ladies, lords, pipers, and drummers.
I need a list of all the items and the quantities for each item.
Okay, here is the full list of items and quantities from the song “The Twelve Days of Christmas”:
12 Drummers Drumming 11 Pipers Piping 10 Lords a-Leaping 9 Ladies Dancing 8 Maids a-Milking 7 Swans a-Swimming 6 Geese a-Laying 5 Gold Rings 4 Calling Birds 3 French Hens 2 Turtle Doves 1 Partridge in a Pear Tree
Claude nails it again.
When will the AI slop end?
Most of common information is usually wrong. When programmers gaslight themselves into using it, the code is almost always wrong. Artists are all pissed, because both Nvidia and "Open"AI trained their data on hundreds of terabytes of stolen data too.
The only ones still satisfied with this, are the top 0.01% billionaires, who continue selling these products to companies, who in turn buy this only because of peer pressure
I say this as someone in big tech, AI is pushed because it’s an easy lie to keep big companies viewed as innovating to shareholders. I say this knowing that Google, Microsoft, Apple, and Amazon have contributed significantly to AI research in the last few years alongside the obvious contributions of OpenAI - the goal isn’t groundbreaking AI work, but to act as a smoke-screen to show that nothing else has been delivered.
Google has lost ground in advertising, and is losing customers on many of their services. Amazon is losing ground in cloud computing and in retail. Apple has stagnated with recent poor releases. Microsoft has made ground in cloud, but has struggled in advertising, Xbox, Office, and Windows. They use GenAI to keep their stock price high, otherwise they’d drop like a sack of shit because shareholders would say “what the fuck have you even done in the last half a decade?”
Seriously. I cannot wait for the hype about these stochastic parrots to die.
Stochastic parrots is an excellent phrase.
Google fired a co-inventor of it.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timnit_Gebru
Following her departure, Google held a forum to discuss experiences with racism at the company, and employees reported to NBC News that half of it was spent discrediting Gebru, which they took as the company making an example of her for speaking out. The forum was followed up with a group psychotherapy session for Google’s Black employees with a licensed therapist, which the employees said was dismissive
It’s a real fucking laugh. It seems Google’s go to response to discrimination is to hire psychs to calm it’s employees. Real cyberpunk corpo shit. “Let’s fix your thinking.”

Another classic example of a technically correct answer missing nuance and context.
christmas wouldn’t be christmas without 42 geese
Twist: They’re alive. And they’re angry. Choose your weapon.
gotta account for inflation
This is embarrassing, bro
