ChatGPT doesn't know if aliens eat toast.
If we're like ants to aliens, why the hell would they give us their tech? What the fuck is an ant going to do with a smartphone or a drone? What the fuck is a human going to do with a neutrino...
btw, "I don't like raw tomatoes" isn't necessarily a fact. Have you tried sun dried tomatoes? I don't like raw tomato all that much either, but sun dried can be delicious.
Here's a stone cold fact. This guy is talking out of his arse.

An American "scientist" is claiming that to make the perfect cup of tea, you should add...
Yeah fair enough, I'm more inclined to identify as the latter, but even if there exists something that can be called "God", for reasons poop stated, such a God is either nothing more than a creator...
I guess another way to look at it is thus...
The atheist rejects any and all interpretations of God on the basis that he does not believe in a higher power, a creator. There is no God.
The...
I guess I can see where you're coming from, but it's a very small grey area in an otherwise fairly black and white matter of atheism vs agnosticism.
You have a lack of belief in my position...
Interesting take on it but not sure it's accurate. Agnosticism is the opinion that the existence of God is either unknown or unknowable. The latter is an act of faith, but the former is a statement...
It's generally better to identify as agnostic rather than atheist when engaging with a theist, because both theism and atheism are acts of faith, while agnosticism is basically like saying "I haven't...

What, you mean awesome for around a minute before getting cold and bored? Just give me an ice cream.
Merry Christmas! Have the only Christmas song I like. The guitar solo is wonderful.

I had to think about whether it's arrogance or not, I think it is. I mean, generally arrogance is thinking (or knowing) you're better than someone else at something, and behaving in a way such to...
And in the spirit of randomness...
Is there anything more satisfying than the returning confidence to fart with gusto after a period of the squits?
Like, imagine saying to someone "I find that word you use to describe your culture to be offensive and you shouldn't use it in my country".
Imagine being that fucking dumb.
In other news...
Some South African musician has caused a stir because she identifies as "coloured", which is apparently very offensive in USA (due to this term being used by Jim Crow's...
I'm pretty sure this is true. The rules of chess have certainly evolved over time, and pawns having the option to move two on the first move was a rule added to speed up openings. Not long after, the...
I find it hard to believe that dice were part of the original rules. It's much more likely in my opinion that dice were added to the game rules by people who wanted to bring an element of luck into...
Time is actually the most interesting aspect of this discussion.
Let's assume this AI species exists and is observing us. They can identify Earth as a suitable planet for colonisation, but by the...
If their home star is anywhere near us then yeah we should probably know something is up, but the probability that their star is close enough to observe properly is practically zero, even assuming...
Well this is what AI has but biological life presumably doesn't have. Time.
I'm not saying it's a likely scenario by any means, but the idea that an AI might eliminate biological life on its host...
"Economics" seems vague in this context. It's not like we're talking about value, about getting more for your money. Their motivation is likely to take them in the direction of several potential host...
I don't see the energy requirements being prohibitive for a machine species that has, in theory, infinite time to make the journey. It doesn't need to be a large mothership with a large amount of...
This is going to depend on if we can unplug them before they learn to self replicate, build or grow. You can't just unplug a trillion solar powered nanobots. And if the AI brain is buried somewhere...
