The power of AI.

Long story short, AI initially pushed back on the ridiculous idea that drinking your own piss was a cure all, then these users figured out that adding words like ‘esoteric’ to their prompts let them direct AI to tell them what they wanted to hear.

If it's fresh then the bacteria haven't grown to dangerous levels, unless you have an infection.

That doesn't mean you should drink it, of course. But bacteria doesn't always mean bad.

The most dangerous part of fresh urine is the uric acid, which can cause kidney stones if it's allowed to build up (i.e., by drinking it over time)
