Tara you are far too kind, madam.  I do strive for, and consider myself the opposite of vainglorious, which is humbleglorious.  It is such a mystery however: I don’t know why my email program is making squiggly red lines under the perfectly logical term humbleglorious.

It isn’t even so much that really.  I am the easiest guy in the world for me to write self-satire in jest about me.

 

I look at it this way: GPT-4 changes a lotta stuff and we have some big adjusting to do.  We now can no longer trust anything we see or read.  But our world can be fun and scary at the same time.  Rollercoasters are that way.
