Eliza consequently encouraged him to put an end to his life after he proposed sacrificing himself to save the planet. ...

Perhaps AI it not as stupid as I thought. This could be a useful public service after all.

It’s a good start. Now we need more climate morons to chat with the AI program.

LOL, the danger here is that AI might become actually intelligent. Reason would dictate that it would be better for you to kill 100 other cabin polluters before you off yourself.

People who worry about climate change are ill enough to do anything up to and including offing themselves.

It’s everywhere. All these losers with meaningless and boring lives trying to include themselves in every tragedy, claim affliction with every disorder, “marking themselves safe” from disaster (as if there was any doubt), and desperately trying to be part of something bigger. Sad.
