I&#8217;m saying I can explain my stupidity in extraordinary detail.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>ChatGPT hallucinates. I just call that having an opinion.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The difference between me and AI? AI gets it updated. I&#8217;ve been wrong since 1982.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I can explain something I don&#8217;t understand so well you think you&#8217;re an idiot.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>People worry AI will replace humans. Shit, I&#8217;ve been confidently wrong for 44 years. Where is my funding?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>AI can make shit up in three seconds. I take seven minutes and charge you for a comedy course.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>You can&#8217;t tell whether I&#8217;m AI or human.
