Chat GPT BS
AI can be fun, and I've found humor in using many of the chatbots to see what they come up with. My concern is that AI is already being used for population control in places like China (the Social Credit System) and that humanity is already falling prey to derivative content created by ourselves. The concern is that at any time people believe they should trust the very institutions and processes needed to go about daily life, we soon fall prey to derivative and "influencer"-based content. An AI becomes an echo chamber of input from human nature and possesses nothing which has not been inputted or intended for its perimeters. If society exists within its own bubble, the AI is a proxy of that.
The problem is that society is now in a post-modernism, late-stage capitalism, and according to this article, post-literature age.

An Introduction to A.I. Story Generation
https://mark-riedl.medium.com/an-introd ... 99a450f615
A.I. is best when it generates a story with a known conclusion, and works backward. It's story construction is derivative and based on a heuristic of known inputs (hence the argument it's plagiarism if it just pulls from existing thoughts out their on the internet, or pooled data inputted into it to construct it's algorithm neural network.)

Re: Science Microthreads
I was wondering, if in the future there's something that directs excess sugar to our large intestines so we don't absorb it, what would our excrement look like if we take advantage of this feature and consume excess sugar? The answer seems to be diarrhea.
There's more diarrhea in the future.Glucose galactose malabsorption, also known as GGM, is a genetic condition in which a child's body cannot absorb the simple sugars glucose and galactose. This can lead to severe and chronic diarrhea when the child consumes these substances.

Cancer and heart disease vaccines ‘ready by end of the decade’
So, within the next couple of decades there will be that, the cell fix thing that slows aging that I mentioned recently, and the discovery of extraterrestrial life that experts are predicting. Within my lifetime so far there was cell phones and the internet. But we already had pay phones, landlines and libraries. The big stuff is coming.

Pretty cool, but also a bit scary (I see a huge margin of risk involved with launching and landing something like this.)

Re: Science Microthreads
I like cats and I'll play with them even though I'm allergic but so many people are allergic to them that I bet many people who think they aren't still experience inflammation from them, the way some foods cause inflammation even though you can't feel it, and it affects your health and life expectancy. Someone needs to figure this out and publish it. Cats are bad for you.

I'm interested in the possibility of turning carnivores to herbivores, so I asked Google's Bard about it. Bards last response is the punchline. It made me want to punch him.

Re: Science Microthreads
I assumed the eye shape was purely genetic and not developed over growth cycles (much of the eye shape affects myopia.) Basically, spend time outdoors and get sunlight, and don't look at things up close too long. . . Not sure how that will work for cell phone use.
And
Yet you will find "fact check confirmation" notifications with Facebook. . . People like Fauci knew perfectly well, and so did Trump for reversing measures made by Obama to not have gain of function research (though mostly it was about doing it on our shores, the concern was that any such research would create the threat of a pandemic, as was proven to occur.)
Conspiracy theories exist for a reason. This is due to corruption and conflict of interest, and agendas to "discredit" which most tard asses will still glibly and silently retreat into when unable to provide their own reasoning because they too easily conform to whatever consensus they identify with. I've met far too many dipshits that were brought up within an upbringing of shallow BS and their ilk breeds like cockroaches.
