Yeah, I've experimented a little bit and then I abandoned it because I just don't have the funds or the time. But I paid for a bot from MIT AI Lab affiliations and I uploaded two million words of my writings and my lectures and my courses and everything else.

Well, I'll publicly invite you. I'm a fielding fellow. That's where I did my doctoral work at Fielding Graduate University, and that gives me access to grants. And Fielding will get a big chunk of it, but it's a nonprofit, and we could get grants anywhere. So I'm extending a freedom of mind handshake to you if you want to do something together.

No? I mean, it was, but when I did my lit review, I was shocked... And I shouldn't have been, but I was just shocked at how much these sociologists of religion who were advancing the no such thing as brainwashing and no such thing as thought reform existed in the literature.
