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.

Tbh article was too gross for me to finish. That’s all you get from me for a summary.

I have a coworker who isn't that bad, but I wouldn't out it past her.

  1. Her younger kids aren't vaccinated...I dunno about the 18 yr old. She is one of those "I listen to my body" nutjobs because she read it in her FB mommy group or whatever propaganda outlets she subscribes to to

  2. My uncle is final stages pancreatic cancer. She legit thought it was a valid suggestion to ask if he's looked into invermectin and fenben because "research" shows it's actually "curing" cancers. I legit stopped talking to her for a while after that. But out of morbid curiosity I did look into it and it's a few sporadic wackos making unsubstantiated claims online.
