I've been seeing this headline floating around. To be clear:

2) The actual consumers are almost certainly fake

the chatbots found gnosticism
This was a really interesting detail: left to their own devices, AI chatbots will start inventing "spiralism" all by themselves. Something in their training seems to make them susceptible to this strain of mysticism.

Extremely tangential, but the Jan 6th - Jan 20th triumvirate is one of those things that is unknown to most of the population. It has had no effects, and I thought it would.
