Looks like OpenAI's PR department woke up and put their main man heaney-555 to work on shaping public opinion.

Dude makes up like 50% of the replies here.


What if Trump retroactively pardons himself and his family for all possible crimes in the past 10 years, the same way Biden did?


Biden didn't pardon himself afaik.

But... that's still perfectly legal, isn't it? All of these little backdoors the founding fathers added to the executive as some vestigial organ of monarchical power just because they couldn't trust the people in "we the people" maybe should be reconsidered. If we don't want presidents to be able to pardon themselves and anyone else without limit, there are ways to make that happen. Never even bothering to convict any president of a crime doesn't even attempt to fix that problem however.


congress can impeach him, which makes those pardons null


The U.S. constitution does not say that. Where are you getting that from?

It does say that the president cannot pardon an impeachment, but that's not the same thing at all.


Pack the Supreme Court, rule them invalid, and proceed with the plan. Also, you know that "the same way Biden did" is under a completely different situation than this.



Would Kasparov still be a chess grandmaster if he grew up with Deep Blue?

(Yes. Chess champions are stronger than ever, even though none of them have been able to beat a computer for decades.)


I don’t think the comparison is fair. Deep Blue was an opponent in a highly bounded game. Mathematics has no bounds, and modern agents are specifically designed and trained NOT to be opponents.
