It is a rep. package and not some prohibited item. I do not see why you need to enter anything. Do you mind posting or DMing the link?

Cold dinner aka bread is a totally acceptable dinner.
If warm I am all for capital-labor substitution in the hh. Air fryer, rice cooker with steaming basket, slow cooker all fair game.

There is a chance that current LLMs amplify whatever is readily available online now & prevents novelty (e.g. we'll be stuck with R/Python/etc. vs new tools) for grants that would be grants that resemble existing grants, but then we're already there without LLMs. 🤷♂️

Say you can prove it's LLM writing. You still need to prove it's an online LLM and not a local one (no copyright issue).
