It may be helpful in certain areas that deal with large-scale datasets, but what will happen when AI hallucinates? I also wonder what will happen if the AI bubble bursts ? It may never burst — what if it does?

The main duties of a state are internal security and infrastructure. We already pay enough taxes without these two core responsibilities being fulfilled.

| to what purpose? | Oct 3, 2025 |
To get advice on how to do suicide? (like already happened)
For full control over the citizens? (like in China)
To create deepfakes?
For annoying customer support?
