To answer your questions:

1. No.
2. Yes.
3. I don’t have opportunity for gardening or a need for for firewood. Just this afternoon, I did just very successfully forage for yummy wild mushrooms for my lunch.

What do you do, stranger?

I have a motorbike I use infrequently, I eat red meat rarely, and I have no children. I feel like I’m doing my part.

Do I have to be profound when I make a comment that is taking more of a dig at my fellow space rock companions than at AI itself?

If I do, then I feel like the author of the article either has as much faith in humanity as I do, or is as simple as I was alluding to in my original comment. The fact that they need to dehumanise the AI’s responses makes me think they’re forgetting it’s something we built. AI isn’t actually intelligent, and it worries me how many people treat it like it is—enough to write an article like this about it. It’s just a tool, maybe even a form of entertainment. Thinking of it as something with a mind or personality—even if the developers tried to make it seem that way—is kind of unsettling.

Let me know if you would like me to write thiis more formal, casual, or persuasive. 😜

Can we say that AI has the potential for “intelligence”, just like some people do? There are clearly some very intelligent people and the world, and very clearly some that aren’t.

Yeah, you’re right, but perhaps I should not be so dramatic abouts it ending the relationship. More that I’m worried the conversation will bring unnecessary stress on top of so much stress. If there wasn’t so much going on, this would be an easier conversation to have.

He’s a narcissist. This is what they do, or don’t do in this case.

I met some American military personnel in a bar in Singapore. It wasn’t on a military base. Their dates looked a lot older than 18.

This just made me spit my beer and laugh out loud in a pub. Thank you.

It’s certainly up there with Russia and North Korea at the moment.

This. Your faith is presented as normal when growing up in religious family. As you get older, there is opportunity to question those beliefs and, for some people, you realise those beliefs are mental and insane.

Is that “all stops”, as in they will get rid of that guy who very definitely did a Nazi salute?

I’m talking about America as a country, not you as an individual. I understand your frustration - I went through Brexit as someone who voted to remain and very definitely didn’t vote for a government that chose Boris Johnson as a leader.

Those who voted certainly did. Those who chose to not vote did also. I don’t live in America but it was incredibly obvious this was coming. America chose to be represented by by this guy who said quite clearly what he was going to do.

Anteeksi. My humble apologies. I thought Moomins were just Moomins. Today I learnt a thing.

If only we had billionaires to help out!

That’s Norwegian, I think.

Where is this tunnel?

Closet Nazi.

No row houses, so definitely not the UK.

I’m glad this is basically the top post.
