I see ChatGPT has entered the "I am 14 and have deep thoughts" stage. AKA Musk mode.

  Tbh I'm not seeing anything in the delivery here to quality it for being sneered at, or compared to Musk. Perhaps it's easier for some to mock a reminder like this, than to reflect on it. This is one of those truths that's worth remembering, and deeper than it might seem. "All conditioned things are impermanent — when one sees this with wisdom, one turns away from suffering." - Some 14yo I guess, idk

    I mean, Buddha was a spoiled princelet who had an overreaction to discovering that not everyone shared his privilege. In many ways he’s the archetype of I’m 14 and this is deep.

      I've heard enlightenment called many things, but "an overreaction" is a new one. > In many ways he’s the archetype of I’m 14 and this is deep. He was 29 when he set off on his quest, and in his mid 30s when he attained enlightenment. Enlightenment, btw, is just about the polar opposite of fake or performatory 'depth'.

        "Enlightenment" is a word you've been programmed to respond to in a certain way, but it doesn't represent anything particularly meaningful. It's a religious concept like "clear" in Scientology. It's used as a carrot for gullible religious folk. > He was 29 You're being very literal-minded.
