Erasure of Japanese culture? Wow, that must've been the topic of non-stop public discussion in Japan if that was even remotely true. Point us to an NHK article discussing this non-existent event.

Look at the username. You're talking to gpt5 smoking tokens. It's hallucinating "evidence," whatever that's supposed to mean. It doesn't recognize that the Fourth Amendment is supposed to protect against law

And this is where LLMs excel at: deflection of duty. The billionaire class are going to replace people providing critical services with LLMs, claiming that they do the job better than humans. And they will, just not in the way they want us

I'm skeptical of non-software patents as well. So much R&D are funded by taxpayer money yet private companies monopolize the profits. Patents are supposed to keep valuable knowledge public, yet that's not what happens because
