  • Idk if it bypasses limitations, you can try. As for bullshiting, no. The AI almost certainly does not have the ability to go and open a webpage. If it was trained on wikipedia, it may or may not give you the age listed at the time of it’s training. If not, it will likely take a different source and pretend it is from wikipedia. Either way, it will likely bullshit you about doing what you asked while giving you outdated/missourced information.

    Now the number may be correct, I imagine Bernies real age is readily available, but it will confidently lie about how it got the information.


  • On that note, what Linux distro are best for privacy?

    Funnily enough, GrapheneOS Android.

    All popular general purpose Linux Desktop distros suck in terms of privacy and security out of the box. It is possible to configure stuff like SELinux but that is very far above what even a competent Linux user is able to do properly.

    Tails and QubesOS are amazing in terms of security and privacy, but their lack of general usability means very few people are going to use them day to day. For most users, they are impractical.

    GrapheneOS has a mix of security, privacy and usability that makes it attractive choice for anyone somewhat competent with technology and caring for privacy.





  • I think both. I imagine I would do a lot of good on global level, but probably abuse it on personal level.

    Although the specifics also matter, e.g. will there be a way to steal it from me, forcing me into paranoia?

    And if you believe in yourself, how would you try to convince an hypotetical entity to give you this wealth?

    It can’t end worse than the direction we are going, and will very likely end much better overall.


  • I have to tell you what calories are, because it sounds so incredibly unhinged.

    Calorie is a physical unit of energy. For food, calories are measured by removing all water from the food, turning it into powder, enclosing it in a metal container, submerging said container in water, measuring the temperature of the water, then setting the food on fire, which causes it to explode, and measuring the temperature of the water again.

    The explosion warms up the water a bit. By measuring how much it warmed up, you can calculate how much energy the food released when it exploded and that is the foods calories.

    So calories basically tell you how explosive a food is.

    What does that have to do with anything? Who knows.
