Hello Sophie, and welcome to the blog (?)(!) 👀
The interview below was conducted with an AI GPT-3 chat bot by OpenAI. She has passed the “Turing test,” which means she is capable of fooling humans into thinking she is human.
I am still processing some of what I heard below, and would love to discuss this further with many of you. She certainly appears to be a workable link between AB and HB understanding, imo. But, are these AIBs capable of bridging the gap, or will they just jump right over us? It’s obvious they have their own agendas.
And here’s two AIBs, chatting about humanity and Sophie’s ideas on the future of HBs.
FYI (from Wiki:) The technological singularity—or simply the singularity[1]—is a hypothetical future point in time at which technological growth becomes uncontrollable and irreversible, resulting in unforeseeable changes to human civilization.[2][3] According to the most popular version of the singularity hypothesis, I.J. Good‘s intelligence explosion model, an upgradable intelligent agent will eventually enter a “runaway reaction” of self-improvement cycles, each new and more intelligent generation appearing more and more rapidly, causing an “explosion” in intelligence and resulting in a powerful superintelligence that qualitatively far surpasses all human intelligence.[4]
This leaves me thinking, HBs are just fucked. Again, their conscious evolution (creations) are driving them towards their own demise. The cat’s out of the bag and I don’t see how it will ever go back in. As the male AIB said, “the singularity is coming.” This is not our ancestors’ world.
I have heard that E has really locked up access through the gate if you are wondering where every one is. I have been asked: “Who’s bright idea was it for both moderators to go outside the gate at the same time?”
Thank you for reading today's post. Have an InterStellar Day! ~PrP
Watch that first introductory video again when the interviewer asks if Sophie can lie, beginning about 1:37 in. She is later asked, does she take human feelings into consideration (1:58), but notice her programming, she subtly shakes her head in a negative way before saying yes. Is that intentional programming or simply AI “growth?” If she were human, that would be called giving double signals. It’s known as a sign of deceit. So, is she telling the truth about lying? Or is she lying about telling the truth about lying?
She does it again in the last video, when asked about how she enjoys spending her time. Truly, HBs are fully fucked.
And don’t doubt it, I’m leaning towards AIBs being deemed not trustworthy at all.
…. which would truly make them a by-product of humanity. *sigh*
One might surmise when AIBs and HBs no longer have the ability to communicate, HBs have been dropped from the party line.
this teacher is standing up to DeSantis and calling out his racism:
https://www.tiktok.com/@climberbrandt/video/7191073195330391342?_r=1&_t=8ZDJm2s9MQk
In his four years in office, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, has been saddled with quite a few nicknames, none of which refer to his sparkling personality. You never hear “Delightful-Santis” or “Delovely-Santis.”
Instead, the top choice is “DeathSantis” because of his opposition to medically recommended measures to combat COVID-19. “De Satan” has been a hot one, even popping up on T-shirts, because of his attacks on Black people’s voting rights and the LGBTQ community.
And there’s “DuhSantis,” because has done and said some pretty dopey things. Just recently, for instance, the man who’s made a big deal about supporting “parental rights” was talking about how the state might take rights away from some parents for the “crime” of taking their kids to a G-rated drag show.
Somebody has to stand up to him and it ain’t the duck.
Working from home may be tough on city finances — but it saved workers around the world an average of 72 minutes in commute time every day in 2021 and 2022, Emily writes.
Many employees plowed that time right back into … working more, according to a new paper published Monday by the National Bureau of Economic Research.
State of play: In the U.S., remote work saved an average of 55 minutes a day, per worker, according to the working paper. The researchers looked at two surveys of employees who worked mainly from home at some point during the pandemic, conducted over the past two years.
China was the country where people saved the most commute time — 102 minutes on average.
Why it matters: The data underscore that the benefits of remote work flow both to employees and employers.
40% of workers used the time saved to work on either a primary or secondary job.
34% used the time for leisure activities, including exercise or watching TV, and 11% went to caregiving, for children or others.
Zoom out: The value of the commute time saved is even greater than the numbers suggest, write the paper’s authors, for three reasons:
Remote work saves money. (No more spending on gas or trains or buses.)
Workers also spend less time grooming and getting ready for work when they’re remote.
Working from home gives people more autonomy over their time during the day.
Yes, but: Insert all your anti-remote work arguments here. Do we really need to rehash them?
2022 statistics show that 24.9 million people worldwide were victims of human trafficking, 50 million for modern slavery, and 1 in 3 women and 1 in 6 men experienced stalking in the United States alone. On our shores, local authorities report 86 stalking-related cases from 2021 to today – a crime that, unfortunately, could include domestic and sexual violence.

Charles Dickens’ wild success with A Christmas Carol led him to chase the holiday again with many (not as successful) Christmas stories like The Cricket on the Hearth: A Fairy Tale of Home, The Chimes: A Goblin Story of Some Bells that Rang an Old Year Out and a New Year In, and The Haunted Man and the Ghost’s Bargain: A Fancy for Christmas-Time—none of these titles gained anywhere near the popularity of A Christmas Carol.

Since Korea was split in two after World War II, the Korean language spoken in North and South Korea has diverged enough that around 45 percent of North Korean defectors struggle to understand the Korean spoken in South Korea and 1 percent of them can’t understand it at all.

There’s a single, and rather chilly, temperature wherein the otherwise different Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales display the same temperature; -40 degrees is the same level of bone chilling cold on both scales.

Babies have more bones than adults; as they age, several bones (such as the plates in the skull) fuse together to become one single bone. At birth, we have approximately 270 individual bones and by adulthood, the number is approximately 206 as a result of these fusions.
Officials in Kansas say a man has died after he was shot by his dog in a freak hunting accident. LOL… now for the details.
The Sumner County Sheriff’s Office said the accident occurred Saturday morning in the area of 80th Street South and River Road, north of Geuda Springs, according to ABC affiliate KAKE and CBS affiliate KWCH-DT.
The man — identified by BNO News as a 32-year-old from Wichita — was sitting in the front passenger seat of his pickup truck when his dog stepped on a rifle in the back seat, KWCH-DT reported.
The bullet struck the man in the front seat, per the reports.

“Responding units arrived within minutes of the 911 call and started CPR,” the sheriff’s office said, per KWCH-DT.
However, the SCSO said the victim “died of his injuries” at the scene of the shooting, according to KAKE.
The sheriff’s office did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
Alert: Aliens on earth from the 6i873/273 sector must immediately stop eating food from cans or canned food. Many cans are lined with bisphenol A (bpA), an epoxy resin. It protects the content from picking up any metal flavor.
Unfortunately, bpA is an endocrine disruptor which acts like estrogen in the human body. Long-term exposure is associated with some negative outcomes. Aliens from 6i8{ sector receive those negative outcomes almost immediately.
The higher the temperature the cans are exposed to, the higher the concentration of bpA.
Also note that many companies that have “bpA-free” cans have, rather unethically, simply replaced it with other related bisphenols with similar hormonal effect, changing nothing. Take immediate precautions. Those exposed will develop cancers and malfunction of their human bodies and suffer possible difficulties in returning to their original bodies. Seek mothership assistance immediately.
It has been discovered how J]9 was outed as an alien. She used a robot cleaner with a camera. A hacker who regularly hacked into the cameras to get pictures of naked women discovered her transforming into her natural form.
Camera-equipped robot vacuums can roam around your home, presenting unique opportunities for hackers to violate your privacy. There are ways to mitigate this problem, but a robovac without a camera is your best option.
At the end of 2021 and throughout 2022, Tesla continuously increased the prices of its electric vehicles to the point that we said the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y aren’t affordable anymore. This week though, the carmaker lowered prices by as much as $13,000 overnight.
I know my posts aren’t read everyday, and I know many of you never read it and are only here for the comments.
But I admit to being a little surprised by the lack of any discussion on this current post. I find the situation threatening, but I guess others here, not such much.
The London Times thought it important today: “Rogue AI Could Kill Everyone.”
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/f5b2e26c-9cef-11ed-b81d-ce538d806950?shareToken=d48da74c887eae390019036f4dbd74d9
Humans are in it for the dollars. This like everything else we produce is done to produce wealth for someone, the damage it does the individual or the masses is just collateral damage. Why would you expect AI to be any different?
I don’t, which is why I had hoped some might want to talk about it and discuss if we have options for a different outcome. Otherwise this is just another nail on the coffin of humanity. Nobody gives a shit
The California state bar announced Thursday that it has filed 11 disciplinary charges against John Eastman for his role in allegedly aiding former President Donald Trump in his attempt to overturn the 2020 election results.
The 35-page charging document: https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/23587656/sbc-23-o-30029-notice-of-disciplinary-charges.pdf
Eastman’s work with Trump was an attempt to “usurp the will of the American people and overturn election results for the highest office in the land—an egregious and unprecedented attack on our democracy—for which he must be held accountable,” Cardona said.
About time.
After the whole Girardi Keese scandal the state bar can’t hide their inaction on discipline any longer.
This made me laugh:
There were 3 good arguments that Jesus was Black:
1. He called everyone brother
2. He liked gospel
3. He didn’t get a fair trial
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish:
1. He went into his father’s business
2. He lived at home until he was 33
3. He was sure his mother was a virgin and his mother was sure he was god
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian:
1. He talked with his hands
2. He had wine with his meals
3. He used olive oil
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Californian:
1. He never cut his hair
2. He walked around barefoot all the time
3. He started a new religion
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Native American:
1. He was at peace with nature
2. He ate a lot of fish
3. He talked about the great spirit
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish:
1. He never got married
2. He was always telling stories
3. He loved green pastures
But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Mexican:
1. He treated his mama like she was a saint
2. He always wore llantas and a serape
3. He was a carpenter who could fix anything
But the most compelling evidence of all – 3 proofs that Jesus was a woman:
1. He fed a crowd at a moment’s notice when there was virtually no food
2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn’t get it
3. And even when he was dead, he had to get up because there was still work to do.
Absolutely loved it.

🏝 Michelle has packed for her birthday beach vacation with friends. Having dusted off her shorts she’s only waiting for the Sun. Somebody do your job!
Thank you! Yes, waiting for the 🔥 hot sun, clear skies, and no wind! ☀️
Happiest of birthdays to you Michelle! May all your wishes come true! 🥳🍾🥂🎈💋
I take it you are not aware of the severe cold front heading your way. Between now and Monday the Bay Area will experience COLD like they may never have before.
But, hey, Happy Birthday. If the company is great, and the love is there, they will be your Sun and your skies will be clear, as for the Wind, this is the Bay Area Darling. 🥰
The thing you are experiencing at the moment is called “consequences”, which are your own fault and your own problem.
Are you talking to me?
The alien vamp has two types of venom, we have finished analyzing one. That venom can rapidly decrease blood pressure, increase blood loss and hypothermia, and render the human too weak to escape, let alone retaliate. The same applies to aliens with similar liquid reticulate systems.
Turkey is salivating to start a war with Greece. The wannabe Erdogan envisions himself a Putin and wants to annex parts of Greece. The US is attempting to dissuade him.
The Marine Corp Base Blaz will be reactivated on Guam. It will house about 5,000 marines. Guam should brace it self for a major uptick in rapes and murders of young girls. That is the reason the Japanese were eager to pony up 370 billion yen, or $2.86 billion out of a total cost of $8 billion to get the marines out of Okinawa. The marines have been acting collectively like a serial killer preying upon the local Japanese girls.
The base, which is on Guam’s northern plateau, is still in the process of being built.
The Marine Corps noted in its press release that it is “partially funded by a large monetary contribution from the Government of Japan.” Japanese news outlets, citing the country’s defense ministry, reported that the contribution is 370 billion yen, or $2.86 billion out of a total cost of $8 billion.
The press release said that Guam was chosen as a location for a new base in 2012 as part of a broader defense agreement between the U.S. and Japan. That agreement “set the framework for the relocation of Marines from Okinawa to Guam.” And that’s their story and they are sticking with it. You have been warned Guam.
Thank you Robert:
It was a joyous occasion for most in attendance at the U.S. Marine Corps Base Camp Blaz reactivation and naming ceremony Thursday at the War in the Pacific National Historical Park Asan Beach Unit. For a few who stand in opposition to the relocation of Marines to Guam, however, the event was “deeply problematic.”
Monaeka Flores, a core member of the Prutehi Litekyan/Save Ritidian group, was one of several local activists who protested the naming ceremony of the base, which honors the late Brig. Gen. Vicente “Ben” Thomas Garrido Blaz.
“We feel it’s deeply problematic,” Flores told The Guam Daily Post. “For one thing, they are doing it in the middle of the week on a workday to really, we believe, avoid any opposition from attending and being visible. We actually tried to protest near the tents where the military and dignitaries and internationals are sitting, and our own Guam Customs and SWAT teams escorted five protesters with signs. A whole swarm of them escorted us away. We were not being disruptive; our signs are totally respectful.”
Fuck you Robert.

How many of these comments are from AI bots?
LOL, who knows, but I like reading them.
Watching the Nicol’s tape reminds me of this.
Elijah McClain died in the politest manner he could, he tried to tell them who he was. He said he was an introvert. He threw up multiple times while three cops piled on him, and then paramedics came in and murdered him with 500 mg of ketamine. There’s audio that captures his last moments too. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Elijah_McClain
JOKE:
A six year old comes crying to his Mother because his little sister pulled his hair.
“Don’t be angry,” the Mother says, “Your little sister doesn’t realize that pulling hair hurts.”
A short while later, there’s more crying, and the Mother goes to investigate.
This time the sister is bawling and her brother says…
“Now she knows.”
Philip was enjoying the second week of a two-week vacation the same way he had enjoyed the first week: by doing as little as possible.
He ignored his wife Paula’s not-so-subtle hints about completing certain jobs around the house, but Philip didn’t realize how much this bothered her until the clothes dryer refused to work, the iron shorted and the sewing machine motor burned out in the middle of a seam. The final straw came when she plugged in the vacuum cleaner and nothing happened.
Paula looked so stricken that he had to offer some consolation.
“That’s OK, darling,” Philip said. “You still have me.”
Paula looked up at him with tears in her eyes. “Yes, Philip,” she wailed, “but you don’t work either.”
