Indeed --- Democrat abortionists try making sure THEY are never born. Even before pregnancy DEI slanders try convincing women they will only become fully human by ripping out their womb and vagina; Venus must become Vinny. Understand well the neo-pagan power-hoes who pimp this line of madness.

It's a test.

In your attempt to look smart, you didn't.

I expected very little from LLMs ... outside of "closed form" tasks like writing computer code [ or helping to admin my home Ubuntu systems ]. From < /. > posts I gather LLMs do a mediocre coding job. Long retired I have tested GOOG.ai --- from my browser --- in a different way ... extended conversations on (semi) "open form" topics like (1) estimating 1st-person experiences of (living) Jesus Christ (2) 'classical' options for interpreting double-slit experiment (3) weakness in neo-Darwin biology . And other topics of that ilk. I have been shocked at the casual literacy of GOOG.ai, and ... with a bit of prompting .... casual humor. GOOG+references gets the science right ... AFAIKT ... while presenting itself in an uncanny [ motif? ]. The suggested "hidden" text aspect might be a/the correct attribution. Something about GOOG.ai is ... uncanny.

First sentence: "If the mind is an ocean, we spend our lives floating at the surface." But, "mind" is not a thing, but an operator ... namely awareness.

Do LLMs "make decisions" better than a pair of loaded dice ?

I believe you are on dangerous ground, using the word "react" ( Newtons 3rd Law ) to conjure motion. There's a famous historical example from the early 1900s. Conservation of momentum ought to be your choice.

For the unsupported home lusr Ubuntu is threatening, not awful, and superior for web-browsing <FF/Librewolf> . Keep in mind that Linux GUI/CLI has NOT improved ease-of-use in 20 years of common availability. That failing might be "genetic". My extended family ... casual / persistent computer users ... have no serious complaints about Win-OS.

There is magnetic potential <A> everywhere, but not a magnetic field. See Aharonov/Bohm experiment.

It's just an ID. Like when a cop stop you for speeding; asks for id. You whip-out your Win-11 license card. No problemo ... hells-bells you even have EXCEL-ACCESS running on your car display panel so you can make database additions while driving I-75 between Detroit and Cleveland. Every savvy driver knows that's a 85 MPH roads after 8-PM .

Of-course! The point of story-telling is the exchange of wit, action and sensitivity between two ( or more ) humans. I would not tell a story to a machine. Naturally codr-boiz make their living by telling stories to machines -- no wonder your values are so twisted.

If all "better" means to you is faster & cheaper, then no reminding needed for me to avoid your products.
