Obesity is not a disease. It's one symptom of metabolic disease, caused by overeating carbohydrates.

Plenty of people keep the weight off ... if they permanently change how and when they eat.

I'll agree that while exercise is very good for you, it has minimal impact on weight gain or loss.

generative AI is fundamentally just predicting the most likely next token (word-ish) based on the prior, it's autocorrect on crystal meth.

it has no comprehension of anything it says or does, it just generates valid text based on the analysis of immense amounts of previously harvested text.

hallucinated citations are because AI does know what a valid citation should look like and where to expect to find one, so it puts one where you should find one, and it makes one that looks like it has seen before so the formatting and naming should sound plausible

Journal Journal: Pope Leo XIV's first challenge: Justice

https://www.pillarcatholic.com/p/whats-going-on-in-cardinal-prevosts

Pope Leo XIV has a unique chance to stand with victims, and flip the script by flying to Peru soon to testify against Fr. Eleuterio Vasquez Gonzales

Doing so will let him purge the sodomites. Doing so will send a message to all, that Cardinals will no longer be given the red hat to escape justice.

I trust Weather Underground instead- it's private citizens, not government propaganda, and it's far more accurate.

Post-COVID, I don't trust governments or corporations to do science. I saw too much statistical abuse, p-hacking, politics, and outright lying about the scientific method to trust federal funding OR corporate funding of science.

Science is best done by private citizens funding their own experiments with outside jobs, not academic peer-review cancel culture bubbles.
