- Appeals to... what authority, exactly? My fucking wife? That's me a) being really proud I married such a baddie and b) explaining the process and where the ideas came from. Which people seemed to want. Damned if you do, damned if you don't, I guess.

- All analysis is contingent.

- How do you know the conclusion was premotivated, and does it matter if the analysis, which is attempting to be as objective and extremely reproducible as possible, holds up?

- The whole point is that there's no actual evidence for what you are claiming, so why does it being highly-contingent cause a problem for me, when that just further shows there's no evidence for what the anti-AI crowd is saying?

- Why do the anti-AI crowd get to state wide, absolute, objective claims with cherry-picked anecdotes as their only evidence, but the pro-AI crowd is not allowed to respond the same way, and when we then go out of our way to respond in a far more thorough, rigorous, and objective way than you ever did, that's just more evidence for our guilt? It's a Kafka trap. You can't win.

Good for you. I really mean that. I think people are winding you up in this thread, but keep your cool, and I admire publicly crediting and being proud of your wife. That’s a healthy relationship. Good for you.

Your analysis was so thorough, rigorous, and objective, that you couldn't be bothered to write it yourself.

Do you genuinely believe an article written by AI defending itself is going to convince anyone who wasn't already on your side? All you're doing is giving more fuel to the "anti-AI crowd" you hate so much.
