       @davidrevoy He felt a stir behind him, a breath of air. At his elbow a voice said, "I am Trap the Unavoidable."

       @davidrevoy We know all about the smoke in Australia! It gives me serious flashbacks to new years day in 2020, when SE Australia was an inferno, and hundreds were trapped in the coastal town of Marlo. (Fortunately the main front missed the township proper)The only good that came out was a lot of foxhole conversions.

       @davidrevoy @arabine From demonic possession, through identity theft, to AI slop. It's an old trope for an interloper to claim they are the real you.If it's any use, there's this initiative (supposedly Pope endorsed!):https://www.proudlyhuman.org/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jul/21/pope-leo-speech-human-not-ai-artificial-intelligence

       @davidrevoy @arabine No guarantees (I think it will have a scaling problem), but still worth checking.(Silverberg wrote a short story about an AI Pope, but the article is about authenticating  his encyclicals on AI)

       @davidrevoy *SO*!!The truth is out!(but it's understandable that Cepper's thaumaturgical brain has gotten a bit flabby and needs an assisting breeze to get airborne...)
