Related, I was using Copilot Raptor Mini (the free model for vscode) and it would not fucking stop saying "there's no magic going on" or "there's nothing magical happening" without any ryhme or reason when it was a clear question/task.

I tried adding custom instructions to not bring up magical thinking and it made it worse lmao, so I just dealt with it until a couple weeks later it all of a sudden stopped.

I'm sure their system instructions now has something like this in it lmao.

Yes I'm sure medical professionals use fucking free LLMs for diagnosis.
