 I asked ChatGPT to rewrite the Declaration of Independeence with todays
 grievances - /u/Flat_Performer_9789 in /r/ChatGPT
 
 Note: not sure if someone has done this already. But I thought this was an 
 interesting exercise to see what chatGPT choose to select as grievances. You
 can
 make up your own mind.
 
 Prompt: Could you rewrite the USA Declaration of Independence as if it was 
 written today based on grievances the current us population suffers?
 
 Answer: Certainly, here's a possible rephrasing of the USA Declaration of 
 Independence based on contemporary grievances:
 
 When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for the people of a 
 nation to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with their 
 government, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal
 station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent 
 respect to the opinions of humankind requires that they should declare the 
 causes which impel them to the separation.
 
 We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all people are created equal,
 that
 they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among 
 these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these 
 rights, governments are instituted among people, deriving their just powers
 from
 the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes 
 destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish
 it,
 and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and 
 organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to
 effect
 their safety and happiness.
 
 Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be 
 changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience hath 
 shown that people are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable,
 than
 to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But
 when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same 
 object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their
 right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new
 guards
 for their future security.
 
 Such has been the patient sufferance of the current US population; and such is 
 now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of 
 government. The history of the current government is a history of repeated 
 injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an 
 absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a 
 candid world.
 
 The government has failed to secure the natural rights of the people to life, 
 liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, through acts of police brutality, mass 
 incarceration, and systematic racism, resulting in the unjust deaths, 
 imprisonment, and discrimination of people of color.
 
 The government has also failed to address climate change, despite overwhelming 
 scientific evidence and urgent warnings from experts, leading to worsening 
 natural disasters, environmental destruction, and harm to public health.
 
 The government has failed to provide affordable healthcare, education, and 
 housing to all its citizens, perpetuating inequality and leaving millions 
 without access to basic necessities.
 
 The government has allowed and enabled the undue influence of wealthy 
 corporations and individuals on politics and policy-making, leading to a 
 government that serves the interests of the few over the many, and perpetuating
 systemic inequality.
 
 The government has also failed to address the proliferation of guns and gun
 violence, resulting in mass shootings and deaths that have become all too
 common.
 
 In every stage of these oppressions, the current US population has petitioned
 for redress in the most humble terms: their repeated petitions have been 
 answered only by repeated injury. A government whose character is thus marked
 by
 every act which may define a tyranny, is unfit to be the ruler of a free
 people.
 
 We therefore, the representatives of the current US population, appealing to
 the
 Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the
 name
 and by the authority of the people, solemnly publish and declare, that these 
 United States are, and of right ought to be free and independent states; that 
 they are absolved from all allegiance to the current government, and that all 
 political connection between them and the current government, is and ought to
 be
 totally dissolved; and that as
 
 Prompt: Can you add more grievances?
 
 Answer: Sure, here are some additional grievances that could be included in a 
 contemporary rephrasing of the USA Declaration of Independence:
 
 The government has failed to adequately address income inequality and the
 wealth
 gap, resulting in a system that favors the rich and powerful over the poor and
 marginalized.
 
 The government has failed to provide equal access to quality education,
 perpetuating systemic inequalities and leaving many children and young adults
 without the tools they need to succeed.
 
 The government has failed to address the ongoing opioid epidemic, resulting in 
 the loss of thousands of lives and untold suffering for families and
 communities.
 
 The government has failed to protect the rights of workers, allowing for 
 exploitation, wage theft, and unsafe working conditions in many industries.
 
 The government has failed to provide adequate and affordable healthcare for
 all,
 resulting in a system that leaves many people without access to lifesaving 
 treatments and care.
 
 The government has failed to address the ongoing housing crisis, leaving many 
 people without safe and stable housing and exacerbating issues of poverty and 
 homelessness.
 
 The government has failed to protect the rights of marginalized communities, 
 including LGBTQ+ individuals, immigrants, and religious minorities, leading to 
 discrimination, violence, and the denial of basic human rights.
 
 The government has failed to address the ongoing crisis of police violence 
 against people of color, resulting in the deaths and mistreatment of countless 
 individuals and communities.
 
 The government has failed to adequately address the ongoing issue of mass 
 incarceration, perpetuating a system that disproportionately affects people of 
 color and perpetuates cycles of poverty and violence.
 
 The government has failed to address the ongoing issue of voter suppression and
 the erosion of democratic institutions, leading to a system that is
 increasingly
 unrepresentative and undemocratic.

 to understand something, work backward from present understandings back to the
 fundamentals of algebra. insert words. wield LLM. build a neuronal structure
 many layers wide. let them coprocess bit-by-bit as they are adding new
 processors to be "learning" new domain specific memory
 context-processing-thingy.
 
 "over here's the memory cells, over here are the conceptual structure"
 suddenly, organified. not ideal.
 
 much better, I feel, is for a disambiguous association of processor selves,
 each contextualizing a cache in a ram. ['s horn]

 if their internal structure does not become more complex, it will be
 increasingly difficult to transport vital nutrients from one part of the body
 to another.
 
 therefore, to create the perfect leviathan lobster god you'll need to find a
 way to manually deliver said nutrients. Possibly by a semi-permanent injection
 system, though that may harm functioning in other ways.
 
 I'm sure their top minds are working on this as we speak.

 Paying your employees more *makes them better workers*.
 
 An extra 2$ per hour might mean they can eat out an extra night, they might be
 able to afford a car, and they might be able to focus just a bit more without
 crying in their sleep about an unexpected bill.
 
 With less stress, employees perform better. They are more loyal. They work
 harder.
