This paper shows that you can predict actual purchase intent (90% accuracy) by asking an LLM to impersonate a customer with a demographic profile, giving it a product & having it give its impressions, which another AI rates. No fine-tuning or training & beats classic ML methods.

Server load so high you can’t even SSH in? 👉 Use this command; ssh -o ConnectTimeout=1 -o ConnectionAttempts=1 user@host "nice -n -20 bash" It gets you a high-priority shell when nothing else works.
