Well I take that back then, my basic grep missed that because it was flagged and collapsed.

You typed a lot and I’m not responding to all of it, but for this specific point

> And secondly how do I EVEN PROVE THAT I AM NOT AI.

You cannot do so anonymously anymore now that silicon can pass the Turing test convincingly. I can’t do it either. Trust was already at an all time low on the internet and now it’s completely cratered.

I personally have come around to believing that our technological progression has made widespread anonymous speech in public to be a net negative. Not as a symptom of the times but as a permanent change to human societies. I am still for free speech but I think we need to have human identity tied to the speech or we will end up in a world where you can have all the speech you want, and humans won’t see it. You’ll be making statements to machines who then try and manipulate you back, and can be deployed en masse at speeds humans can never match.

That or we make impersonating humans on the internet a crime with the death penalty and deal with the few people willing to risk that for whatever reason.
