And you don't seem to understand...a shame, you seemed an honest man.

Interestingly, this appears to only work when you're logged in. I was logged out and saw lots of horror games, and was confused.

I'll admit I loved those books as a kid. I was obsessed for a while with getting a pith helmet so I could go on adventures like Babar.

As an adult...well, the colonialist and racist overtones are no longer lost on me, and my son doesn't own any of the books. But part of me misses my innocent wonder reading them.

You're getting downvoted, but I think there's truth in your comment. It's too late to put the genie back in the bottle. This set of new technologies we're calling "AI" is here to stay, and the Internet and its denizens are indeed going to have to adapt.

I'm not sure what "adapting" looks like yet, however. We haven't even seen all of the possible consequences yet. I think it's reasonable to be concerned or even frightened for the near future, where basically every industry is going to be affected.

It would be the ultimate irony if this article was, itself, generated by AI. Based on the article's "voice", I doubt it is, but in this brave new world...one must always wonder.
