At this point, I'm just waiting for the day when I'll try to initiate a conversation with a meat-drone, and instead of asking ChatGPT what opinion they're supposed to have about what I'm saying to them, they'll completely surrender the last vestiges of their shredded cognitive capabilities and just hold out their phone so I can chat with their LLM directly and leave them out of it. Probably while drooling a bit.

    We might be looking at the latest incarnation of natural selection here. You tried your best to help your friend act in their own best interest and were rebuffed. It's a shame, but what else is there to do but let it play out?

    Absolutely nothing.

    The worst part is that he’s very progressive and quite outspoken about it… in a deeply red and rural part of a red state. I can see a number of bad scenarios playing out.
