    I rarely find myself aligned with the churches backwards ways but…

    I feel like a good burning at the stake might do us all a bit of good here.

    Well, I don’t know the context, but the Chinese are running propaganda on social media to point out that Ai is bad, so they can win. So, by the pope being rightfully against AI, in Peter theil’s mind I assume he thinks the pope is working in China’s interest.

      Wait, does Thiel not realize that the Chinese made Qwen and other models? How dumb does one have to be to miss that?

    Now they’re just spewing bullshit. It’s really the Kremlin (and maybe others) playbook. Overwhelm everyone with crap and we just don’t have the energy to figure out the correct parts. Donald trump is a master of this too.
