I heard that Jamie is still on Canadian Holiday, she collected a CERB loan, a CEBA grant and she's still living outside of Mexico City in that commune. Now that's what I call and all expenses paid Canadian Holiday. Is that bad? Is that wrong?

See: Helper Agent. This was not coined by any symbolic ai scientist.
Tammy: Refection, Ok you made that up! I call BS!?!

Mendacious Fucks

This is the name of the sports franchise that Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway invented in March of 2024 on their podcast. Although it started as a joke they were funded by Mark Cuban to build a new tier 2 world soccer team called the Mendacious Fucks. My name is an inside joke because Scott uses that handle to insult people with a big word that they don't understand. He's basically calling people liars which is kind of a fun name for an international soccer sports franchise.
Scott laid out the challenge. He was going to take on wrexham he was going to create a billion dollar Enterprise with his partner Kara all in sports by not caring about sports at all. He was the king of the Mendacious Fucks and they were playing all attack football and selling a lot of merch.

This information, often false or misleading, can induce stress, anxiety, or other negative psychological effects, akin to a toxic substance causing physical illness.

2. Information that, due to its false, misleading, or malicious nature, contributes to a toxic environment, undermining mental health, promoting conflict, or impairing informed decision-making.

**Etymology**:

Early 21st century: portmanteau of the English words 'toxic' and 'information'.
"I could not believe the lies coming out that paper. Sean, the constant barrage of toxinformation on social media platforms has been linked to increased levels of anxiety and social polarization. We have to call Sylvia and Antonia and cover this is a Silicon Humanists Podcast"

Helper Agent

Helper agent Is it new idea that is part of prompt engineering and things like ChaptGPT. A helper agent can be added to a conversation with the AI algorithm, help agents can provide a view or a check after an answer is generated. Helper agents improve the ChatGPT's correctness and limits hallucinations.
Tim: What do you mean helper agent?

Rob: It just add another character into the chain of thought.... Just ask ChatGPT a question and in that question say had an "empathy" helper agent to focus on empathy to your conversation and after the answer is generated, assess the answer for empathy and suggest improvements to the generation. It's simple right?

Tim: Ah, no.
