  If you ever see such a thing, please let me know. My areas of expertise lie in other places.

  It's honestly getting to the point where I almost wish someone with know how would train an AI to block AI slop from my internet

  "Where there is no boredom there can be no reflection". Going to disagree with this. I burn my hand on a hot stove, I reflect upon that and I'm sure not bored.

  I find that a lot of the reflection in my life comes from similar things. Engagement with a good book, coming across a problem I've never seen before, interacting with new people in new social situations. Things I engage with that also throw me back to myself... All things that make me reflect that aren't boredom.

  I'm not disagreeing there is value in boredom. I feel like a lot of my creativity comes from having been bored while young (as well as it being actively encouraged by teachers). Just disagreeing that boredom is the only reason anyone reflects deeply.

  He's got places he will give them to stay. Fat from the capitol, he says.

  He means the death camps.

  Notice how student debt forgiveness is part of the package?

  There's a few reasons to get that data.

  To weaponize it against us himself, or sell it to our enemies.

  To create a "master list" that the authoritarians can use to disburse and destroy those they disagree with or find impure.

  This isn't just about some shitty AI. It's about destroying and controlling us.

  He's currying favor with world leaders because he saw how easy it has been for such vast wealth to undermine and topple American democracy and he wants to do this everywhere.
