I think all animals, including humans, have a primitive hard-wired "us vs. not-us" mechanism. We humans sort the world by politics, race, sports teams, etc. and while I can understand the evolutionary value, it's a very crude tool. The best we can do is to be aware of it, and only accord it the limited value it deserves.
@Boadicea12@atrupar That tests for a specific brain impairment. One of the others is to count backwards to zero from 100 by eight, i.e., 100, 92, 84, etc. Ask your friends to do it sometime without their having time to think about it.

Ready, fireโฆAIM! Has anyone actually lost their job to AI yet? Maybe letโs wait for a minute before we start trying to steal half of lawfully owned and created companies.
