The power of AI.

Long story short, AI initially pushed back on the ridiculous idea that drinking your own piss was a cure all, then these users figured out that adding words like ‘esoteric’ to their prompts let them direct AI to tell them what they wanted to hear.

Tbh article was too gross for me to finish. That’s all you get from me for a summary.

Sometimes I feel like I'm just not good enough, ya' know? That whatever I do, I'll just never be as good as someone else doing it, so why try?

Then today I learned about a bunch of people, so unbelievably, laughably stupid, that they drink their own aged urine.

It doesn't make me feel better about myself, but it sure lowers my opinion about the average stranger.

    When I was a student there was a pub that was always heaving because you could get smashed on less than a tenner on horrible spirits. The gents toilets there was genuinely horrendous, very drunk people combined with questionable plumbing meant there was usually a half inch or so of stale piss pooled on the uneven floor by around midnight. Literally if I think about it I can still smell it, it was fucking rancid but nowhere else could you get a quad vodbull for £4 so we put up with it.

    That exact smell must permeate all of these people's houses. Unless they're taking the piss I guess.

    There was a college nightclub near me years ago known for cheap drinks. After decades they closed down and sold the building. When the new owners renovated the place, they had to dig up the concrete underneath because decades of piss getting into cracks in the foundation basically crystalized and created a health hazard.
