I've been seeing videos about this for probably 20 years (here's a link from 2009 https://phys.org/news/2009-06-gecko-feet-advances-science-fr... ). But it's starting to seem like an elusive graphene-type

I think no matter what you write, the user can always write a prompt that causes a logical contradiction (Gödel, Escher, Bach). At that point, the results are up for grabs. "This record cannot be played on record player X" is anal

> Every human life has value. You say that because you're a human. If you were a frog, I bet you'd value frogs' lives more than humans. Why do you think it's your place to change others' lives into whatever form
