Oh wow... I'd sure love a black mirror for home too. That sounds cool.
And your kids? For sure they should become dentists. Don't you think?
What's that AGI kurfuffle you're talking about? Is that the Alternate Galaxy Immigration movement that I have been hearing about a lot? (it seems it will blow away All Immigration somewhere in the future)

What are you talking about? I just went to my dentist and wanted to share my story because I was so happy with how he handled my teeth!

Reach out in private, and I'll happily share his contact information (warning though: he's not cheap! but that's obviously also testimony of how great he is)

Stop press: the decision on hashtag#chatcontrol has been removed from the agenda of the ministers of home affairs next week.

It is safe to assume that the file will be revisited later. So don't stop keeping your eye on this issue!

Would like to share this open letter by a bunch of people smarter (and a lot politer) than me...

I really like this little story, both since it is pretty funny, and highlights the absurdity of this whole thing. I think putting all of this in a different context that isn't beyond most people is a really good tool to point out just how stupid all of this is. We all know not everyone isn't as tech literate, and it infuriates me somewhat seeing that being taken advantage of...

Yah ... black mirror @%^* is REAL ... I only hope the AGI hype is just that .. I don't even know what our children should be learning in school ??!? "Life skills" but what if we have NO how much change AGI or even AI will change?
