I was thinking about my Reddit account. How it's really old and has tens of thousands of mean, cranky ass bad takes, half of which are probably not true or I wrote when I was high, depressed, or stressed about events beyond my control.
Those are all getting scraped by Google right now to be rolled up into the permenant knowledge base of their next massive AI model. You're welcome!
I hope you’re feeling better these days!
Oh, I'm okay, thank you. The op comment is intentionally hyperbolic to help drive home the point.
