People should be mad they’ve been manipulated but also I hope people wonder why even in conditions that allow participation that there’s less than 10 *out* collegiate trans athletes that this group could find. There’s over 200,000 division 1 college athletes, for example.

This is a great example of one of the ways AI is actually going to endanger / kill huge numbers of people. Shitty chatbots cause their special sort of brain rot to the people who package intelligence for our shot-callers. They take the bad ideas from there. www.cnn.com/2026/09/18/p...

It was only just before the planned operation that officials dug deeper into the report put together by a special operations command analyst and found it had been generated with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) — and that a chatbot the analyst had used inaccurately identified the material the ship was carrying. CNN was not able to learn what the misidentified cargo was.

The report, according to one of the sources, was “entirely false.” But it also “almost started a war,” the source said. Any US operation against a Chinese vessel could have risked spiraling into an armed conflict between the two nations.

You are— most likely, post childhood— not being tricked into thinking the traditional cartoon is a real person. All "tilly norwood" is is that attempted trick.

The fictional character, on the other hand, exists in a mutual conspiracy WITH you. You are Willingly entering their world, every time you discuss them, & in that world, they are real. However, when you talk about "the idea of Batman" (e.g.), you might well find yourself talking about "it": the idea

…and to get the general public to ACCEPT the replacing of actors— by anthropomorphizing it. It is literally a function of the propaganda/PR game they are running on us. So maybe resist that, even in your language.

The difference between "tilly norwood" & a traditional cartoon is the cartoon has a human voice actor, director, & writer, working in concert to create a performance. The reason to call Characters by their in-world pronouns & "Norwood" an It, is that the SPECIFIC INTENT of it is to replace actors—…

Again: "Tilly Norwood" is not a person; it is a shoddy, and also pretty gross puppet. Stop referring to it as "she," and start asking whether there might be something a bit off about wanting to promote a sexualized but also childlike "actor" that can never tell its creators or users "no."

We had a family holiday to the US in 1996 and I was excited to see the Star Trek Adventure at Universal Studios… and very disappointed to learn on arrival that it had closed in 1994. We went to Las Vegas too but the Star Trek Experience wouldn't open until 1998. A perfectly mistimed trip! 😕
