AI will figure out what I respond to. I'm better than most at placing emotions to reason, but if AI can out-reason me in any direction it wishes, then I'm as vulnerable as anyone.

As SA says, hypnosis doesn't get people to do or believe things they are opposed to; it just nudges them. Probably those who believed "fine people" wanted to believe it, and so they did. There might not even be 1 person who didn't want to believe it, and then was convinced deceived persuaded by "news".

I was relieved to hear SA isn't going to talk about drones for a while. The Locals app bug that allows non-members to listen to members only streaming hasn't been fixed yet, so I heard the Raquel Welch story along with one about a beautiful secretary that worked at the phone company.
