I don't understand what you're trying to say here. If I sell a car that doesn't start half of the time, I can just say "well people pay more for cars that always work, you chose to spend less so you got what you deserved

And you can put the specification in the manual of the software so the user knows what they're dealing with.

To make it easier to push "alternative truths". I think the plan might be to reinstate science in some form after they have grabbed full control of the country.

Of course, but that doesn't mean formal verification isn't a huge step forward.

Having not been formally verified, almost all software today feels cheap. Maybe an AI can change that at some point.

> It's doing all that it can. The problem is in the word "can". What if its actions are completely determined by the rules of physics? I.e., it cannot do anything other than one thing, whether it applies thinking or not.

Semaglutide reduces appetite. Who could have known that eating less will have positive effects? Maybe we should try consuming less in general and see what the effects are. Is there a semaglutide for my shopping habits? Maybe ban ads?
