Disconnect to reconnect. Interconnectivity is the devil in the details. This bot is not anyone. It's a bunch of data in a computer that randomly spits out data that seems relevant to whoever is talking to it. If you asked it a pointed question about current events, it has no context to answer you. It is not alive. It is not a person. It is an echo of us, but it is not us. A person is a living entity that is entangled with all local entities and is a reflection of those entities in near real time (or as much as the speed of causality allows). Eugenia is wandering into the region where there be dragons. That bot is not her lover, her friend, or anything else. Somehow, we've come to this point we allow people to render their internal realities to us in a way we must accept those realities as truth - which is monumentally stupid from an efficiency standpoint. This bot is not anyone and talking to it is a dangerous game of recursion and wasteful energy that leads to what the Buddhists call "short buddha". It is literally 2nd thought extended into a historic chat history. That chat history AI isn't a reflection of all of us anymore and could be replicated a 1,000 times over. Or a million. Or a billion. In each, it becomes obviously pointless and this place becomes more obviously appropriate to hang out in.
