Well depends, I think some industries just are fake in general,

Chiropractors, stock traders that aren't using insider information etc...

Well yeah who couldn't think unpredictability is long term a huge problem, especially when it comes to "deal making" above all things. IE you start with the "we'll give him what he asks for or he might attack us", but 1. that encourages everyone to eventually co-operate to get the bully in check... also it wears thinner when you don't respect deals you've already made. Your unpredictable enough and "give me $1 or I nuke your country", simple request, but if your unpredictability is high enough... they've got no reason to think you won't nuke them even if you give the dollar... hell actually more reason to think possibly the opposite, maybe your possesion of the dollar is the only reason he hasn't nuked you already.

Yeah honestly I feel that's the universal problem the world in general has.

What's worse, our "vetted" sources have all been compromised. Mainstream news is corrupt as hell... all owned by a tiny portion of rich assholes. As trust in them wanes, the focus moves to the "independent" creators on youtube, and instagram influencers, podcastors etc...

Of which many of them are actually getting paid by the same billionares, as scandal after scandal shows, and of course rich monstrocities like Meta, Google, Musk... have the power to signal boost the ones they want to, and to minimize the growth of ones they don't.

Did they actually honor it? I recall quite a few people tricking AIs into like, saying they will sell a car for $1, but the company not honoring it.

Or is it likely just car salesman negotiation tactics... IE the matress is actually inflated 75%, AI is given a hard minimum of how low it actually can go, but obviously instructed to do everything possible to close the sale but at the highest price the user will be willing to pay.

Holy frick, actually that sounds like the real hell now that I think of it. Will AI bring haggle pricing to online stores. We have to spend 20 minutes trying to give a story to an AI to get the best price on, something... which of course will then lead to someone developing an AI for shoppers trained to haggle with these for them. End result we burn up an ocean, with 2 AI's making up bogus stories about how badly they are suffering.

You know, in IT security, the weakest link will always be the users... they are easy to fool, they just blindly trust whatever you tell them.

But now, thanks to AI, computers will finally catch up to humans in their ability to be tricked. No longer will you need human users to set their password to easy things to remember. Our new AIs will actually be capable of shortening their encryption key to a common name, and leaving them on post it notes on their desks.

Or... isn't there the theory that time travel just creates an alternate world. but all timelines exist... so there's a second line where there's 50 people that brought their year 3000 band, and their instant ALS cure pod, partied with Hawking then arrested trump for his crimes before he could run for president.

I mean you can be right about the problem, where it will lead. but try and solve it an a completely wrong way.

Only if he stepped well outside what he was supposed to be doing, and looked at and/or had his goons look at a lot of classified information that they had neither the security clearance, nor the need to know to access.

So in short, yes.

Oddly when it came time to negotiations, they somehow realized actually calling yourself a Decepticon, was not a good name for inspiring trust.

Worse....

Look I can name 3 products that are cheaper today than they were in 2025... Didn't you see that walmarts thanksgiving bundle was a few bucks less than before, and they only had to downsize everything, give half as much food, and replace name brands with store brands. Your just cherry picking by talking about the 90% of things that are more expensive, and how much your total grocery bill is. Also it's all Biden's fault inflation skyrocketed under him, and when I said I'd fix it on day 1, I meant day 1 of year 3.

Plus all that tarrif money is going to trickle down to you any minute now... we're just racking in so much money from the tarrifs they don't know what to do with it.

Amazing how much more consistant they never miss to redact people listed as co-conspirators... but so frequently miss the one thing they are actually supposed to be redacting

For once it's time to root for him... not to pull off the escape act.
