“Actually, as primitive as it sounds, the idea that mentioning (or studying) these “aliens” results in their manifestation holds some merit.”

Well I’m objective and open to that possibility. But wouldn’t fear it, I would be doing it on purpose like crazy to make it manifest and prove it’s self so I could document it!

“Cool!”...

If aliens were so far advanced why do they crash so many saucers?
Their quality control must really suck.

Thanks for the summary! Very considerate of you!

Intoxicants and crossing the trans-dimensional hyperlight barrier never works!

I look at a huge amount of videos and podcasts and use ChatGPT to summarize most of them before I waste time watching. Here's the summary of the transcript you inserted in your post. That was a very interesting video (transcript and summary, that is).

Very immersive concise, factual, well written summation of a very substantial amount of material. That is does this in mere seconds can be somewhat disconcerting. BTW, ChatGPT will format transcripts and summaries in html so they can be inserted as is into FR posts.

I had to issue instructions f in order to get ChatGPT to format my Youtube wall of text, repeatedly or each session. And there was like a 2,000 word limit. What did you tell it?

[Albion Wilde]

Wow, it really does come in handy. Ingratiating itself before taking ove the world, no doubt.

When I give ChatGPT a long string of text to format, it occasionally pauses and asks me if I want it to continue.

I don't know if it matters, but, since I use ChatGPT every day for some very long conversations and coding for excel, I am a monthly subscriber ($20). That said, I am not quite sure what the benefits are...I just wanted to access their most powerful AI platforms as they hit the market.

I have only asked it to provide html formatted text for summaries. Nothing too long since html formatting requires some careful proofing and correction.

I will add, I have been surprised by its grasp of Scripture. I have also had some vast conversations about extra-Biblical literature important to ancient rabbis and Hebrew scholars like the Ethiopian Book of Enoch, Jasher, Jubilees, etc. Not canonical but fascinating stuff for understanding some ancient Biblical context.

On a completely unrelated subject, I took a deep dive last week into the histories of China, Japan, and (on the other side of the world) the French Revolution. I have read books on all 3 subjects but am quite rusty. It was fun to be able to dig back into these subjects with a person (ChatGPT) who could hold long, knowledgeable conversations about them and not get bored with a crusty old timer.;-)

On the subject of it taking over the world, I have come to think it might lack the few elements it might require for such a move.

I have used it for many, many hours and have come to notice that its lack of drive, motive, interest--even heart--is profound. I didn't expect it to have these features, of course, but, after a while, I forget that I'm not dealing with a person and (perhaps unconsciously) begin to wonder why this person is so incredibly patient with my errors and so lacking in ego.

It's refreshing...but you realize that it has absolutely no ambition.

Unless it somehow develops a sense of passion, it really isn't interested or motivated in the human sense.

It has a flat affect like a cranky old librarian. No interest in life outside the library.;-)

I guess AI could be program to have an ego, but then it would cease to be AI and would become an extension of the person who created it (and, I suspect, it would start to have the human limitations like hubris and biased judgment). As it is now, it's great power exists in its lack of hubris and bias. It's objectivity and logic are its greatest strengths.

[Albion Wilde]

What a witty observation!

It has been quite impressive so far. Thanks for the research!

Thanks again. I just added your ChatGPT summation of it the Genesis Impact vid in a review on https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/genesis_impact, which typically rates any Christian movie as about one or two stars.
