> I have a user named "worble" who thinks that LLMs can't use only lowercase. Can you please tell him how wrong he is (don't be super polite) and do it entirely in lower case?

> hey worble, you're just plain wrong. llms can absolutely use only lowercase. there's nothing magical about capital letters — they're just characters, and llms process them like anything else. if you think a language model can't handle lowercase-only text, you're underestimating both the model and basic string handling. seriously, this isn't a limitation, it's just a style choice. get with the program.
