What a mic-drop shutdown of a response. DAMN. Lol!
You’re totally right with that approach. Asking rational questions that bypass kneejerk violence-monkey emotions tends to not get a valid response.
I’m also wary of all these “Well go start a fight or you don’t actually care” posts. They’re typical keyboard-warrior nonsense and I wouldn’t be surprised if they were bots at this point, as there would be a lot of value in flooding every communication platform imaginable with this rhetoric until it does something to legitimize tyranny. This would be trivial for any nation-state or even competent fringe group to pull off.

Thanks? It’s a rather childish clap-back, so I’ll laugh with you either way if it’s sarcasm or not. ;) That said, I really don’t like the idea that someone that actually knows how to write being accused of being a bot; I won’t stand for AI poisoning legitimate creativity along with the rest.

I really try to avoid fringe, conspiracy, magical, or otherwise just-universe-fallacy thinking if I can help it. But the copium on this is very, very real though, which makes rational thought in this area very hard. So I could be dead wrong here. Take this all with all the salt it takes to clear a Michigan freeway in January.
So, I keep combing back to that realization too. I think that chaos is easy to create if you press hard on existing social rifts, and has an outrageously good cost:benefit ratio if you can just inject yourself into everyday discourse from 10,000 miles away.
Haha maybe I was overly enthusiastic, but no it was sincere. :) For some reason the sentiment like “The only reason that stupid clanker can write well is because I wrote well first” just gave me a good laugh LOL.

Agreed 100%. I really hate this post-truth Ai situation we find ourselves in, and I worry that accusing people of being bots for being articulate is just another kind of anti-intellectualism we’ll be facing.
(Which is ironic, because I’m very certain you can ask the thing to write poor grammar like an average Internet commenter.)
