2. Debunking “When Prophecy Fails”

It seems that a clear majority of teens are doing okay with chatbot companions. There is a minority, who are at risk. This seems typical for anything new.

Teens say they are turning to AI for advice, friendship and ‘to get out of thinking’. https://apnews.com/article/ai-companion-generative-teens-mental-health-9ce59a2b250f3bd0187a717ffa2ad21f“AI is always available.

To show you guys how fucked-up the system is let's consider the following hypothetical situation: Imagine you are on a remote continent. That continent is a whole, separated country with its own constitution, laws and other legal BS. And one day the food supply in the country gets disrupted. Eventually, there is no food. Let's say all you people now have and will have for the rest of your life is water. The other thing is that cannibalism is forbidden and punishable by the law. The rest of the thinking is yours ...
