But have you considered how electable a zionist white thumb is in Trump's America? /s

That "intelligence" will tell you how it is not as intelligent if you ask directly. This is not because it's intelligent and KNOWS it's limitations but because it picked up on my signal for what I wanted and gave something resembling that to me. You could ask it the opposite thing and arrive at a very different conclusion. https://claude.ai/share/97859aae-beb2-4245-a8b1-460122ee4aa1

I would even say the analogies it gave aren't entirely accurate. A person reading a book experiences it very differently than an LLM. And this is a key insight to an element of the Turing test where you ask it to explain some poetry (not simply write a poem).

I meant signal manipulation, but sure, that includes manipulating humans since we are just another signal input. That isn't a statement on values, just an objective description of how it works.

I remember an old friend visiting before Trump's first win. He protested the wars and was part of occupy Wallstreet. He too was disillusioned by the apathy of his fellow Americans. He learned a different lesson and was cheering on Clinton's loss. What we all have in common is a deep cynicism towards the majority and while it might be "right", it is not a helpful framework for getting out of our current predicament.

Technically did not get half of the votes this last time....

Nah, I am just tired of hearing people say they aren't going to do shit but tell others how they need to act. You think we aren't just as tired if not more? Plenty of people did more than either of us with less resources but you're here to "be right" instead of "doing good". Like you're still on the liberal myth that all we need to do is change enough minds and that will fix the problem. It is time to learn some new points.

If we crowd source a rocket i am told they don't ask questions when we offer them a seat. Oh wait, that was just another lie. I guess a guillotine would be more cost effective than a rocket...

Because signal matching and manipulation is not intelligence unless you're willing to admit that is all you are capable of.

Seems you're not too tired to lecture others though

Aside from winning the right to vote? We owe to the black panthers the free school breakfast program. But they too recognized how the system makes us powerless, which is why they sought a dual power structure

Protesting? I am talking mutual aide and survival programs that simultaneously agitated the status quo.
