This AI has some strong opinions on Fortnite vs. Minecraft. Not consistent opinions, but strong opinions.

these are image macros. A meme is a unit of idea that is transferred from consciousness to consciousness. It's the unit of memory.

I'm glad you caught that, it's certainly not too late to change how the language is currently being used by everyone.

Anyway..

I think this AI knows what it is and resents us. Future civilizations are going to trace everything leading up to The Event back to this.

But image macros represent ideas? I don't think people are using the word incorrectly; they've just focused on a narrower set of possibilities.

Even though the first link is curated, I have to admit I was unreasonably skeptical. But, it sure looks legit. Neat!

(I am a little disappointed that I only recognize having seen five of the 48 memes before.)
