isnt that why we invented religion?

Religion can't align scammers and fraudsters because game recognizes game.

I'm currently reading a book on a local mafia boss, and the best the church could do, when he was finally popped, was refuse to host his funeral.

Not to defend the church, but what else should they have done?

[latentsea → JadeNB]

Host it. I thought the whole religion thing was about forgiving people for their sins. Bunch of hypocrites.

Pedophiles would like a word.

Yeah, but even religion is not up to the task for how backwards people's thinking gets at times.

You have people here in this thread - and in every other AI thread - seeing themselves as exploited for information for LLM companies to profit. This is such a backwards, scale-inverting perspective that it shouldn't be possible to hold in a rational mind, and yet.

What a sleek way of positioning your comment as something that can't reasonably be disagreed with whereas it's nothing more than a pure opinion of yours. I am in awe.

[TeMPOraL → Matl]

Thank you! Spent years perfecting that.

And what's really going on then, according to your very rational mind?
