Or another way, you were previously objecting to a human using "typical English" to describe an LLM's failure to use "typical English".
> personificiation is not the same as anthropomophism
An unimportant though technically correct statement. In both my example and the comment from xg15 that you previously objected to, "personificiation" is the correct term.

What's your point here?
Mine is: Nobody seriously objects to phrases such as these. So for me, in this case: the more cliché, the better.

While anthropomorphisation treats a thing as a person, personificiation describes a thing with person-like qualities or actions, like calling an LLM "fond": https://hearth.sh/guides/anthropomorphism-vs-personification
LLMs do anthropomorphise themselves, though, with their linguistic selections. (Or, as a normal person would call them, "linguistic choices").
