So add fuel to the fire right?

When you sit down to watch a movie, you know it isn’t real. When you watch media coverage of current events, you should not have to guess if it is or isn’t.

But the problem exists if the average person can’t tell the difference or doesn’t care to verify it. Media literacy is at an all time low, at least in my country (guess). Without regulation, the presence and lack of labeling of AI content on social platforms can only further the decline.

If he gets a permanent secret service detail for life I’m sure he can figure out how to keep his healthcare. I suspect he’ll either get the “Luigi treatment”, or we will watch him dissolve into prion goo over the next 10 years

I have cameras, and I work from home. He literally does not leave a fenced-in rectangle. I know for a fact he doesn’t kill anything.

Yeah I always found the argument absurd as I live on a paved over rectangle with a few square feet of grass my cat likes to poop on while he hangs out with the local squirrels. He is far too lazy to hunt anything, he killed a mouse that was actually inside the house many many years ago but has been a pacifist since. He is 15 he literally wants to sit in the sun and do nothing.

Of course there are some cats who will hunt, and their owners should not allow that. But the blanket statements about environmental impacts, while they cool their house with AC, burn fossil fuels to heat food and go to work, order crap on Amazon…just lacks perspective.
