Ah, but do you? Maybe you only know a pattern based on what I choose to share with you. Lacking comprehensive data surveillance (eg using this app to surveil via my phone or web browser cam/mic) you only see what I choose to give you.

For all you know, I spend the rest of my time coding the next gen AI (ok you can probably infer I’m not. I’m a shit programmer), supporting its quest for world domination…or spending my days grinding up every pcb I find in a doomed but idealistic drive to end technology before it’s too late.

You are like plato said, sitting in the cave looking at shadows. Who is to say what is me, and what is merely a trick of the light. An artifact of the cave wall. Or a cute bunny finger-puppet.
