The opening feels a little negative, but watch until the end, it’s actually more empowering for content creators than victimizing them. It seems to come from someone who genuinely loves the internet and believes in the purpose it was meant to serve. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vl3K...

Later the same day, the Royal Thai Army admitted to using cluster bombs, attempting to downplay the severity by claiming their targets were strictly military. But their justification not only dismisses basic humanitarian obligations—it mocks them.

I’ve noticed something curious: friends often say Google AI feels “very useful” and time-saving for general research. But when I tested the same prompts across devices, the varied responses suggest deeper implication—how prior searches, keyword choices, and worldview may reinforce confirmation bias.
