you can’t trust its explanations as to what it has just done.
I might have had a lucky guess, but this was basically my assumption. You can’t ask LLMs how they work and get an answer coming from an internal understanding of themselves, because they have no ‘internal’ experience.
Unless you make a scanner like the one in the study, non-verbal processing is as much of a black box to their ‘output voice’ as it is to us.

'is weirder than you thought ’
I am as likely to click a link with that line as much as if it had
‘this one weird trick’ or ‘side hussle’.
I would really like it if headlines treated us like adults and got rid of click baity lines.

They do it because it works on the whole. If straight titles were as effective they’d be used instead.

The one weird trick that makes clickbait work

It really is quite unfortunate, I wish titles do what titles are supposed to do instead of being baits.but you are right, even consciously trying to avoid clicking sometimes curiosity gets the best of me. But I am improving.
