@datarama @200fifty
I am kind of scared of the electronic god angle, not because it will be one, but because I think it might be a hideously small step to obeying what an autocomplete bot tells you to do, in some bizzare roko's basilisk corrilary, because you hope it will turn into a god.

In other words, I have some real concern for when these crazy things start spitting out instructions that don't turn into Looking Glass surrealism by the third step, and people insisting we follow it blindly.
