What's the point of pardons then?
Our current administration ran on a platform of paying criminals who were convicted of breaking laws.

Clustering is usually a pretty good sign of doing neither - just because information is free doesn’t mean you shouldn’t synthesize it for yourself.

Where's @dang when you need him?
I'm as smart/dumb as anyone else on here and I'm sorry this conversation turned into whatever this is.
For a historic example, you may be interested in: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_for_Grain
Maybe try a different example to make your point?

I said 'even in the most cataclysmic scenarios'
Even in the most cataclysmic scenarios, scientists project Sea level to rise 2m by 2100, and most of Florida is above that level.

It's intended to make Parliament powerless (when you read the document, I'm sure you saw that part), so, I'd say it became a right wing concept when it was proposed by a far-right political party in 2017 to move Germany to the right.

The AfD literally published a manifesto of new and notably more conservative policy goals in 2017.
They do not claim to have the political stance of Germany 25 years ago, they themselves say that they are something new (For example, point 1 is an adoption of Swiss-style direct democracy, which is a notable shift to the right).
I encourage you to think much more deeply than "I saw this meme and it resonated with me," because the same is true of the American Tight, despite Elon's claim (Regan, for example, was very famously against Tariffing Canada).
Nihilism isn't good in and of itself, so I'm not sure what you're arguing society would lose if we actively chose to be less nihilistic.
The things we say publicly actually do matter and the post-modern descent into absurdity and nihilism has tangible negative consequences?
I'm curious what other things you would argue influences an LLM's behavior.
I am also generally one to trust the claims of the people who train the models, though you're welcome to the highly improbable belief that they operate in a fantasy world.

Just as a reminder for everyone here, 0.14% of US children (+3x in a decade) are given Human Growth Hormone because they are short. Our government says that being in the bottom 2 percentiles is a medically valid condition to be treated with hormones.
Differentially focusing your emotional response on sex-expression hormone therapy vs. hormone therapy generally is reflective of bias.
The amount of times I've read a very thoughtful article only for the comments to be political drivel (the worst was peak-COVID SF discourse) weakens your argument quite a bit.
It's even more foolish to think outside forces aren't using bots/tech to sway the discourse.
Just because it's not engineered for the mainstream's dopamine addiction doesn't mean it doesn't do the same thing.
Because the fundamental building block of society (which we are losing rapidly) is some amount of care for your fellow person.
Your comment is a great example of how we Prisoner's Dilemma'ed ourselves into a world of isolation and decaying institutions.
This isn't even close to true and it's kind of the central thesis of this article.
Saudi Aramco has consistently been a $2tn company in the oil market.
Walmart is a $1tn-ish company focusing on a fraction of US retail.
It also ignores the idea that the economy is not zero sum and companies create their own market/economic value all the time.
Please supply actual instances of the supposed bias.
Maybe me today would say you need to do some more research and thinking on how LLMs work?
If you had told me that in 2015, we would have a tool that can iteratively search the world's best and largest unstructured database and synthesize outputs in language (any natural and structured language), I would have said that is basically AGI.
This whole desire for it to 'reason' (autonomously prime its search with a few thousand token) and 'think' (search for the best information within its parameters and synthesize that with its context) is semantic and will feel irrelevant as the technology progresses and we become more used to what these things are actually doing.
I honestly struggle to imagine what AGI will be if not an ever-improving semi-structured database (parametric or otherwise) that we become increasingly good at searching.
We do one thing in our bodies with relatively binary nervous system and a fundamentally continuous endocrine system. That's clearly and unanimously consciousness. We also, however, see other animals with similar set-ups but less capabilities, so we understand it exists on a spectrum.
We separately invented a thing that gets to similar outcomes with fundamentally binary logic gates.
Our minds are drawn to comparison and classification, so we fight over how similar or different those two things are in a way that often feels unsatisfactory because in order to meaningfully compare the two, we have to reduce them in a way that feels like its underselling either/both.
Your proposal intentionally injects inefficiency and noise into the system because you don't like some political boogeyman.
Maybe this is the one evidence-driven case where you can be open minded about the value of a public employee union?
