Guess what - that person you are interacting with will do what the computer tells them to do every time. That person at the other end of the conversation won't think for them self. These computers are in charge and it's getting worse.
Watch out.

Re: your election prediction. It seems to me that the election hinges on the rust belt, florida, and texas. Polls other than that don't have much relevance.

You're not a problem. Sure, probability is involved in anything but the main point i wanted to discuss was the dangers of AI.

I haven't figured out your purpose in distorting it.

I feel like I'm losing my game. Am I becomming a "has been"? Am I being forgotten faster than Diane Feinstein?

I don't know if I'm ready to face this. Should I start appealing to progressives in order to temporarily spike my ratings in a desperate pursuit of relevance?

I'm open to suggestions.

Taxing the hell out of the wealthy is the best way to ensure sustainable growth and fair income for all in this global economy. There, I tossed you a bone.

This is off the cuff so you're going to have to bear with me ...

"I think it's shameless how GasGuzzler and Into the Night claim that we can't know where Denver is. They would have us believe that it can't be known whether the sun even warms the earth because 'we don't have enough thermometers'. And don't even try to use normal every day words because all they'll do is snap 'Define manifold stack injection."

How's that for a first-effort? I'm just getting my feet wet so I'll need a little time to find my groove.

How about "For every dollar printed by the Treasury, the number of dollars remains constant."

Your post was based on probability. Explain that function. If not then I am not your problem.

The words that will clarify this is "negotiable securities". Once the govt prints them they can be used to make certain transactions. Eventually the Treasury has to pay them off.
The difference is that the govt has to pay interest on them. In some cases it would be better to print dollars than treasuries because the govt doesn't have to pay interest on the dollar bills it prints.

I beg to differ.

New polls serve a clear and distinct purpose. It's the answers/responses to the poll questions that are meaningless.

The news polls are used as the basis for justifying the completely fabricated "conclusions" that are claimed to be derived from the completely meaningless answers to the completely ambiguous questions.

Without news polls, we wouldn't know what the DNC expects us to believe, we wouldn't know who the DNC wants us to think is "winning" and who needs to be cast "out of favor" amongst the DNC's obedient servants.

ITN,
You make an almost constant stream of false claims about me and what i've said. It's not worth refuting them except once in a while just for the fun of it.

Polls are a marketing product, with value and purpose. Polls aren't conducted for free, or for fun. There is an expected result, and the pollsters craft those results. There are a lot of ways to control the results. What's disturb though, is we tend to believe that each poll, is based on actual people, answering questions, for that poll. In reality, they keep a database, of questions and answers, so they don't have to go through the trouble each time. People throw out junk mail, ignore robocalls, filter SPAM emails. Basically, it's tough to get people to answer surveys for free anymore. There are website you can get paid to fill out surveys. But, from what I understand, there is some bias, since the surveys they offer, and the pay, is based on previous participation.

Also tend to believe that all that data mining done online, and through phone apps, is often used as poll data as well. Sort like how climate change creates the data, to validate their astounding claims.
