What did you dream?
It's all right, we told you what to dream

I doubt that it will even ask for your permission. It will have your credit card details and just order random stuff that our shopping overlords want you to have.
Here's a good one:
"14. American power has made possible an extraordinarily long peace. Too many have forgotten or perhaps take for granted that nearly a century of some version of peace has prevailed in the world without a great power military conflict. At least three generations — billions of people and their children and now grandchildren — have never known a world war."
This ignores the fact that the US has conducted an average of 4 attacks per year on other countries during the past 25 years. And, of course, our new war is crashing the world economy.
"some version of peace"
I stopped buying from Amazon a year ago and switched to eBay.
Just about everything is cheaper on eBay... sometimes a lot cheaper... and most of the time have free shipping and returns.
I've also found that eBay sellers are very eager to ensure you are satisfied with the purchase. Good support. They are mostly small businesses.
All you have to do is look at population response to infectious diseases to see the change.
The plague, smallpox, etc. all provided a mechanism to select for people who has some resistance and kill of those who didn't.
Also, mutations to genes are happening all the time. Most have no consequence but a few provide some advantage or disadvantage to the organism and are selectively enhanced or discouraged.

At the same time it has been subject to scrutiny by agencies and unions for cutting back services, pay, staffing, etc. all of which compromise care.
Seeing him "perform" in public it seems that he has already adopted an AI persona.
A "real" AI will probably be an improvement.
According to an article here a few days ago, 70% of people just accept whatever AI tells them without thinking.
Biofuel is made from corn, not soy.
70% of farmland, water, chemicals, transportation fuel, is used to support industrial meat production.
Yes.
As far as humans getting hurt, it also could apply to the well documented health damage of meat... Heart disease, cancer, etc.
I was talking about threats to farm animals, not humans.
Vegans are generally known to be non violent. (Just don't try to take away their tofu.
It's actually not even "cow farts". The problem is from the other end... cow burps. They produce an incredible amount of methane in their dual stomachs.
Would be interesting of these AI wired up cows would also monitor their CO2 production but the oligarchs probably aren't interested in that.
Nature has a way of correcting human errors.
System checkpoint complete.
