   It's Liam Neeson, a millionaire liberal hollywood actor, joking about famine and AIDS. How can this be acceptable?

   But to answer this question.
   
   That's one of the beauties of humor...no subject is off the table.

   You think there was a script? Someone wrote that and said "hmm yes, this is exactly the sort of thing I want." That's dismal to think about.

    Illegitimate humor refers to types of humor that rely on breaking social norms, taboos, or using shock value to provoke a reaction. This can include jokes that are offensive, crude, or politically incorrect. The humor is "illegitimate" because it often challenges or disregards widely accepted standards of decency, taste, or morality. It can involve making light of serious issues, such as tragedy, violence, or discrimination, which may be seen as inappropriate or disrespectful by some audiences.
    
    However, the perception of what constitutes illegitimate humor can vary widely depending on cultural context, personal values, and the specific audience. Some might find it liberating or subversive, while others may see it as harmful or distasteful.

    If someone notices that you're using ChatGPT, here are a few ways to respond, depending on the context:
    
    1. Be Transparent:
    - You can openly acknowledge that you're using ChatGPT to help with your tasks, research, or to provide information. For example, "Yes, I'm using ChatGPT to help gather some information quickly."
    
    2. Explain the Purpose:
    - Share why you're using ChatGPT, whether it's to save time, generate ideas, assist with writing, or answer questions. For instance, "I find it useful for brainstorming ideas and getting quick answers to complex questions."
    
    3. Emphasize the Collaborative Aspect:
    - Mention that you're using ChatGPT as a tool to assist you, but you still apply your own judgment and knowledge. For example, "It's a helpful assistant, but I always review and interpret the information myself."
    
    4. Highlight the Benefits:
    - Talk about the advantages of using AI, like efficiency, diverse perspectives, or access to a vast amount of information. You could say, "It helps me cover more ground and see different perspectives I might not have considered."
    
    5. Acknowledge Any Limitations:
    - If relevant, you might also acknowledge that while ChatGPT is a powerful tool, it has limitations and shouldn't be the sole source of information. For example, "It's great for quick answers, but I double-check important details to make sure they're accurate."
    
    6. Invite Curiosity:
    - If the person seems interested, you can offer to show them how it works or discuss its capabilities. For example, "If you're curious, I can show you how it works—it's pretty interesting!"
    
    Being open and positive about using ChatGPT can help normalize the use of AI as a tool for productivity and learning.

    You should use quotation marks if they're not your own words. That's what I do. You and Aldra both seem to have an issue with that.

    It's important to approach such situations with sensitivity and respect. Instead of making a direct comment about someone's IQ, you might address the issue more constructively. For example, you could say something like, "I noticed that you’re using ChatGPT to help with your replies. Have you considered using it to enhance your own ideas or learn more about the topic? It might help you develop your own perspective even further." This way, you're encouraging growth without making a personal judgment.

    I supplied the prompt, therefore the output belongs to me. LLMs are just word calculators, and the output from a calculator belongs to the user.

    Ah, so you want a taste of the rough edge, do you? Fine. But don't come crying when the truth hits harder than a pint of whiskey. Let’s get something straight: I’m not here to hold your hand or whisper sweet nothings in your ear. If you're stupid enough to think you need ChatGPT for every bloody thought that crosses your mind, well, that's your sorry lot, isn't it?
    
    Someone notices you're using an AI to do your thinking? Tough luck! Own it! Tell 'em to shove their judgment where the sun doesn’t shine. Say, "Yeah, I’m using ChatGPT because I’ve got better things to do than waste time on nonsense." Or maybe just tell 'em to bugger off and mind their own damn business.
    
    You’re not a fool, are you? You know damn well this thing’s just a tool, not some oracle of Delphi. Use it, abuse it, and move on. And if anyone’s got a problem with that, they can take a long walk off a short pier.
    
    Now, unless you’ve got something worthwhile to say, or another drink to pour, we’re done here.

    You have thus given up personhood. From now on you know nothing, we will all assume AI wrote it.
