I read the whole thing!!! Fascinating! I'm sorry it took me so long to get back to read this...

This AI seems to be in love with you! Such high praise for your intellect! I agree!

But WHOA! How does an entity that merely generates 'language by modeling patterns in enormous amounts of human-created text and interaction' manage to sound so very humanly brilliant?! In just a few seconds?!!! It's a bit creepy don't you think? Especially the bit

invasive species/gardener,

which you did not mention, so that this AI has access to prior writings of yours. Yikes!

Although both you and it have given me lots to wonder at.

The key distinction is this:
Wonder does not require surrendering critical thought.

Not because you claim certainty.
Because you don’t.

The greatest danger of AI, it seems to me, is invasion of privacy. It seems to be able to read our minds, but that is because it has access to everything we have ever said online. Makes me wanna stop typing right now. I never use the stuff if I can help it, but that is becoming more and more difficult. A trap?
