@ZachWeinersmith The real key is using the proper scope for directives like "consistency"

@ZachWeinersmith to be fair, if nobody had ever been murdered in years, a single murder would be global news.

Are they kids going through the snowy mountain, but now all grown up and walking through the city?

@ZachWeinersmith While at this very moment two groups of Abrahamic Near Eastern Semites are smiting each other to bloody bits. Perhaps the story is all too timely?

@ZachWeinersmith itโs surprising how many people Iโve met who didnโt realize Samaritans are an actual ethno-religious group (just under a thousand left) and not just some Biblical jargon.

Weird question: So, one possible nearterm use for AI is as a concierge for purchases, e.g. "find me the best place(s) to buy the following 14 spices online; my budget is 60 dollars" How does this affect advertising? Meaning, part of why advertising works is individual people don't have the time or expertise to do a careful analysis about quality and cost, so brands try to capture attention and then to display quality/desirability.

@ZachWeinersmith I mean... I already have a spreadsheet that does that, no AI required

@ZachWeinersmith I think brands double down on branding (i.e. target ads to persuade you to ask your AI concierge for them by name) and use other AIs to poison the well of your conciergeโs training (e.g., flooding the internet with favourable reviews and comparison lists).

@ZachWeinersmith you would just have ai companies start selling spices for 4.28 when normally you could get them for 2.00

@ZachWeinersmith I'd join the movement straight away. No matter what the movement cares about. I'd draw a line at cannibalism. Or maybe not, now that I think about it.

Nukes and satellites might help possess Earth, but ALL would include, say, distant cosmic strings. They still have work to do. Actually, nukes and satellites wouldn't even help them possess the core of the Earth, now that I think about it.

@ZachWeinersmith the Tรกin Bo Cuailnge, or the Cattle Raid of Cooley, is the best known Irish epic, if that helps.

@ZachWeinersmith these comics somehow have a Calvin & Hobbes meets XKCD vibe I think. I love your stuff ๐
