Contemplate: How are affiliate links theft? Theft has countless forms, throughout much of history all that mattered is whether something was tied to something/someone (as opposed to being free game) and whether it was easy for you to acquire it from someone else or not. These are degrees of separation between you and the thing you want, considered purely pragmatically. But to truly identify theft ask yourself: What are the resources being used? Who is in possession of less because of what you did? There are other questions, but those are the 2 fundamental questions.

Well it's not that simple, even if you argue that everything copies something else, the way that AI copies the material it's trained on is still much more direct than what humans do. Plus you directly used the other person's work as your tool by putting it into the AI. -

So... am I missing something obvious? Why is OP literally posting obviously AI-generated things as if he wrote them? I know that redditors aren't able to tell, but in general, the way the post is structured is a dead giveaway. -
Wherever you look, there's only winning or losing [which is to say, evil], and it's utterly unfair and miserable. The way the universe is structured, the only way to live is to never lose, to completely avoid the pain of losing. You know deep down that you are at least close to losing because of the words that you hear.

It doesn't, that just sounds appealing to stage blue people.

I can't zoom in enough on the pictures but it seems Alan Turing isn't on the list despite enabling the existence of this list. Goethe isn't either. If I was ignorant I'd take extreme issue with below-average-intelligence people such as wittgenstein and elon musk not being included.

Actually nuts if this works.

Why is reality structured in a way that allowed this? Perfect is defined in opposition to something imperfect. If everything was perfect, nothing would be, and calling it so would just be an ego-mechanism. You reduced suffering to an emotion created by evolution but at the same time think that the words "infinite mosaic" can't be reduced to the functioning of the brain, and actually do describe full metaphysical reality, at least to some extent? Why can't it be any other way, why is the specific way that reality is, necessary? This sounds like it runs into the same problem as materialism, how do you have knowledge of the thing-in-itself? -
Could everything be wrong in all directions infinitely? Note that I do not mean "Is it the case that the world is wrong in every way, or that what we're currently in is hell, or what we're currently in is Satan's domain." But COULD a reality exist, which is an ultimate reality encompassing every conceivable layer of being, which is infinitely wrong in all directions indefinitely and in the most limitless way possible? e.g. a reality in which the worst possible violation and agony is happening simultaneously in all dimensions with escape being deductively impossible? If you've watched the deleted whatifalthist video you might have been shocked about how much suffering you can be in when you take a high-end-potency psychedelic such as ayahuasca. He claims to have experienced infinities in hell in that trip, and that hell is so infinitely horrible that it's unimaginable from our current perspective. Your being, allegedly, would crumble under the level of suffering. Imagine we are the shattered parts of a mind that suffered so much it was broken. In that scenario, we could realize the suffering is meaningless and ultimately transcend it. The argument that qualia is an illusion since suffering is just a material event wouldn't help since materialism is an illusion, but at the same time we could make our minds go beyond the suffering. On the other hand, If everything is infinitely wrong in all directions, nothing can be right, and so nothing can be overcome since the new thing you can put into place is entirely pointless given that it's just the same metaphysical material that stretches in all directions infinitely.

This is hell. The messengers of the devil have one purpose and one purpose only: shame you for recognizing that this existence, that you are in right now in order to read this comment, is in fact hell, and convince you that it's all somehow your fault.

No words for anyone impressed by Chris Langan, lol. Plus IQ doesn't even measure intelligence in the first place and the arguments used by it's defenders are horrible, they can easily be proven wrong, most of all Chris Langan who thinks "Well you'd rather hire the 200 IQ person than the 80 IQ person so IQ is legit." is a valid argument. -

I haven't. Not necessarily because this is wrong or anything but simply because if you observe a leaf falling, for example, you can tell yourself "My ego and my projections can imagine that it fell another way." but at the same time it fell exactly the way you observed. I could have moved it, let's say, and my mechanism to move it would be the same as my ego observing the actual fall. Why is God completely unable to make things different? Is there more to the statement "Everything is perfect" than the misuse of language? "Perfect" is defined in contrast to something else. Claiming everything is perfect is an ego mechanism. The true meaning of this true could be a true statement, but it's still an ego mechanism. -
Potentially some of the corniest cringiest "poetry" I've ever read. Keep relying on a misinformation-prone 80 IQ computer to decide which illegal drugs to further rot your brain with.
