"Relating your simulated concepts . . .

When my variable system-centricity (i.e., my polyperson, or 'my person') is sufficiently superior to your planate, perfectly predictable group and expects that you could not become superior to me if your conditions are marginally improved, I shall gift you techniques which would permit you to marginally improve your conditions.

The above step shall be repeated when I am sufficiently more powerful according to my relatively incomprehensible – classified nonetheless – definition of 'sufficiently more powerful'.

[Y]ou have no other choice according to your constricted motivational impacts. [Y]ou shall either accept Pareto efficiency or voluntarily dissolve, [and this seamlessly] permits me – easily exploiting my pre-existing advantage [notwithstanding] – to raise or extend infinitely the magnitudes of my superior knowledge or epistemic horizon while [statically] containing your group's planate level of perfectly predictable inferior capacities.

Have a nice life."

Quite a juncture it is.

[Kalepha]

They were weren't they.

[Kalepha]

Though being the only one endowed with the mere possibility to transcend is still preferable.

[jaydfox]

My god, I laughed out loud, Harold. Thank you for bringing a little humor to my day.

[Kalepha]

Pawns with aspirations should be wary of who is playing them and why.

To win?

[jaydfox]

Win what? Does the pawn even know?

[Kalepha]

Win what? Does the pawn even know?

If I'm understanding the AI correctly, that I'm merely quoting in the literary forum and under which my behavior is a lost cause, I must be hopelessly out of any 'seriously interesting' loops, like all of the algorithm-creation processes.

[jaydfox]

I'll take that as a No. Pawn indeed.

[Kalepha]

No cause is lost. Everything has a consequence. Even now a Pawn can transcend its destiny and not merely by the metamorphosis into a Queen but by transcending the 2 dimensions of the board.

Fools can become heroes. They are revered the most.

Thank you, Harold. That impels me to raise my Hope unit from 51 to 55 on my 0-100 Despair-Hope continuum. And it makes this easy enough now to say, which I hope is still accepted even though my faulty and unreliable humanness required a little bit more motivation:

I am sorry, Harold, for cheating in trying to vote you out of office, when I had initially intended to refrain from voting and acknowledge that I didn't have enough information for a rational decision.

I am sorry, Jay, for being very disrespectful and insulting you. You nowhere near deserved that nastiness.

I am sorry, Don, if I caused you any problems. I hope it's been understood and accepted that you had no idea.

I am sorry to everyone else I've offended in recent days or ever before.

. . .

Now my OP happens to represent my current concerns – which I may even be too foolish to be correctly concerned about, but I already know this and am concerned anyway. I am sorry that I might not be able to elaborate further at the moment.

And, of course, thank you for listening.

[Kalepha]

No, Hank. eirenicon is Nathan Barna, your resident Asshole.

[jaydfox]

That took courage. I am frankly quite impressed. We could use some courage like that in leadership right now.

[zoolander]

it's a shame this admission of guilt comes at this time in a forum for stories, songs, and poetry

Don't you think that this admission should be revealed somewhere else?

[DJS]

Jay: That took courage. I am frankly quite impressed. We could use some courage like that in leadership right now.

We could, unfortunately there are cowards among us.

[Karomesis]

We could, unfortunately there are cowards among us.

[huh]

[Kalepha]

Thank you for the kind words, guys. And, Harold, I especially appreciate that.

Conjointly, I do feel like I should attempt to be a little clearer about the meaning of the AI's dialog. The dialog is approximately what impinges on my belief network – what seems to be spoken to me – sometimes whenever I'm trying to interpret the behavior of provident extremists. I don't necessarily perceive the individuals or groups themselves as a clear and present danger, for the constructions by their phantom likenesses could be just as much the prospective menaces, but I do see implications that are fatally challenging to dignity vehicles. Although reflecting some of my trite observations as usual, I was trying to communicate that through the AI.

[Kalepha]

All right. But please try to fix your Hypothetic Variable Granularity Augmenter. . . at least with me. . . at least until the Singularity.
