The number of times I've been almost hit while a driver turns right and then they get mad at ME for daring to cross the road when I'm instructed to.

AI seems very happy to take something one dude said on Reddit 7 years ago and just run with it, zero accountability or oversight required.
I do not like AI in Slack
I do not like AI on Mac
I do not like AI in Zoom
I donโt want AI in my room
I do not want ChatGPT โ
please stop, AI, and leave me be!
I donโt want AI here, or there;
I donโt want AI anywhere!

Spectacular thread, always wondered what was up with these folks but never got a chance to look into it more deeply like this.
It's so important people don't buy into this kind of Qanon style crap.

So many kids aren't only not going to get a quality education, they're going to be disenfranchised from curiosity and learning because their schools were overpacked, underfunded, and crumbling around them

Don't tell me irresponsible cyclists are the greater danger there.
