llms only “exist” to give one reply at a turn you: x llm: y then the whole process starts over. there is no continuity. each reply is 100% fresh. the context of your previous “conversation” is included, hidden from you, in every request you make. continuity is an illusion

Have also asked a couple of researchers about this as it pertains to Alberta separatism, and so far there doesn't seem to be clear evidence... though adding the giant asterisk that people are still looking at this!!

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

This time last year, 51,000 Alberta school teachers were locked out and classes across the province were cancelled. In the end, the government gave school boards cash for a hiring spree. Here’s how people say that has worked out: #AbLeg #AbEd www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Graph of the traffic from AS13238, associated with Yandex, hit earlier by Ukraine. It dropped by about half following a reported strike on a Yandex data center.
This image is a screenshot of a social media post (appears to be from X/Twitter). Here's the content:

**Account details:**
- **Name:** Jeremiah Fowler Security Researcher
- **Handle:** @yoda69
- **Profile picture:** A person in dark clothing standing outdoors, with what looks like a plaza or landmark visible in the background

**Post text:**
> "According to Cloudflare Data Explorer the amount of russian bot traffic has dropped to 49% after Ukraine struck a yandex data center. Could this disrupt the midterm elections in the US?"

**Attached image (chart):**
A screenshot of a line graph, apparently from Cloudflare Data Explorer, showing network traffic data over three days:
- The x-axis spans **Oct 6, Oct 7, and Oct 8**
- The blue line remains relatively stable with minor fluctuations for the first two days, then drops sharply on Oct 8, falling to roughly half its previous level and staying flat at the lower level

**Tooltip overlay on the chart reads:**
- "Thu, Oct 8, 2026, 16:00 UTC"
- "AS13238: 49.8% of Max (49.8% of Max before*)"
- "* Previous period (Thu, Oct 8, 2026, 16:15 UTC)"

To be fair to Canada, I had been finally booked in for a consult with the surgeon at the end of the waiting list when the emergency finally happened. I think that would have meant another 3 months or so of waiting And I did get good care in the hospital ward, but ERs are desperate places

This is a really important point. With virtually all VC money going toward AI, all other investment, including game start ups, has dried up. Sadly, when the AI bubble bursts there will be a potentially long period of time when all the VC money will be wiped out, so still none for start ups.
