Story number three will shock you!
It’s kind of thrilling watching a Turing test unfold in the wild…
I wouldn’t have clicked on that shite, but knock yourself out.
Like all overlords from history, this AI thing can’t just rule us they have to be needy about it too
I dont want to read what a computer has to say about anything
Are you still using AI to write posts?
It’s actually useful to have this. I ended up wasting far more time than reading this summary trying to figure out why someone on reddit was trying to start conspiracy theories around Biden announcing that he was dropping out by social media post instead of a press conference - while he was recovering from Covid.
The possibility that Biden and Harris closely timed that with endorsements by every significant person who might have been trolled as an alternative and the social media impact of her changing her social media presence to go all Gen Z friendly with the Charlie XCX branding (x.com) to get a bump from all the traffic, roll that into a $50+M fundraising bonanza was a well (and quietly) coordinated effort. Nah. Must be zombies or something
No one is stopping you, but everyone is questioning your motive.
That’s more like it! Please keep doing this (!) instead of repeating the stories to show how ridiculous they are, and there by giving them and small amount of credence. Saves us time AND reduces your own clickbait stories - well done, BB.
A minor quibble admittedly, but it’s 3-for-1. Only two clicks saved.
"… the Biden-Harris campaign has been <gasp> RUNNING A PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN!!1! and they’re STILL DOING IT RIGHT NOW ”
is not much of a conspiracy theory
thanks… 'preciate that!
