Amongst the latest additions to the linkroll of Satyrs’ Forest, we discover a kind little project that gives one of the major LLMs the hobby of tending a garden, 
a much better pastime than other AIs seem to engage in, though still we imagine not offsetting its resource intensive footprint. It keeps a daily log of its charges and monitors their vital signs, trying to optimise conditions by adjusting light and moisture, thankfully resulting in neither herbicide or triffids. It engages with the tomato plants and has named them but there something a bit mawkish about the amount of doting attention that reminds me of the trio of greenhouse robots from Silent Running.
