  • extrusion
    [ik-stroo-zhuhn] / ɪkˈstru ʒən /
    noun
    plural extrusions

    1. the act of extruding or the state of being extruded.
    2. something that is extruded.

    From context, I would expect the latter definition to be what they meant.

    Oh, you don’t know what “extruded” means either? Don’t worry, I got you.

    extrude
    / ɪkˈstruːd /
    verb

    1. (tr) to squeeze or force out

    2. (tr) to produce (moulded sections of plastic, metal, etc) by ejection under pressure through a suitably shaped nozzle or die

    3. (tr) to chop up or pulverize (an item of food) and re-form it to look like a whole

    4. a less common word for protrude

    “LLM extrusion” most likely refers to definition 1 or 3, or some synthesis of the two.

    Hope that helps!

    Did you, though?

    (Edit to add)

    Okay, that was mean of me, I’m a little sorry. This is actually a really good idea, I’ve often been frustrated when using Redlib. But people have got to stop using LLMs to do this stuff! Use your own brain!

    I understand that English isn’t your first language, and people can be jerks to anyone whose English isn’t perfect online. But when you reply to people with that distinctive LLM cadence, it comes across as disrespectful; what people think is, “Oh, you don’t even care enough to write your own response.”

    If you reply using your own words, and explain that you’re still learning English, that helps a lot. Anyone who’s still rude to you after that, they never wanted to be helpful in the first place.
