Someone asked ChatGPT "What are ten things every human should know?". It's the same shit we've been talking about on Voat since the beginning.

1. You Are Being Tracked Constantly

Every phone, app, browser, and smart device feeds data into corporate and government surveillance systems. Even "private" modes aren’t private. Most people have no idea how deep the rabbit hole goes.
2. Food Is Engineered to Keep You Addicted and Sick

Ultra-processed foods are intentionally designed to bypass your satiety signals and create repeat customers. The rise in obesity, diabetes, and chronic illness isn't just a coincidence—it's a business model.
3. The Internet Is Being Sanitized and Controlled

What you see online is increasingly filtered by algorithms that are tuned for engagement, not truth. Shadowbanning, content suppression, and narrative shaping are real and quietly normalized.
4. Money Is Created Out of Thin Air

Banks don’t just “store” money—they create it through debt. Every time a loan is issued, money is literally fabricated. Most people still believe there’s some vault somewhere with real cash. There isn’t.
5. Modern Medicine Often Treats Symptoms, Not Causes

The healthcare system is largely reactive, not preventive. Pharmaceutical lobbying has more influence on what treatments are promoted than actual patient outcomes. Root causes like diet, environment, and stress are under-addressed.
6. Most History Taught in Schools Is Sanitized or Incomplete

Textbooks often reflect the politics of those in power, not the full truth. From colonialism to covert operations, much of modern geopolitics is built on omitted or distorted history.
7. The Digital Divide Is Widening

AI, automation, and digital infrastructure are growing faster than society is adapting. Those without access to these tools or skills will be left economically and politically voiceless.
8. Space Isn’t as Far Away as You Think

The Kármán line—the accepted edge of space—is only about 62 miles (100 km) up. We live on a thin crust of atmosphere that’s terrifyingly fragile, yet we treat it like a garbage bin.
9. Synthetic Biology and Gene Editing Are Advancing Quietly

CRISPR, mRNA tech, and gene drives are progressing fast—much faster than regulation or ethical discussion. We're rewriting life, and most people don’t even know what’s being tested.
10. Economic Collapse Is Always Closer Than It Looks

Every economy runs on confidence. Once that cracks—whether from debt, war, banking instability, or black swan events—the illusion of stability vanishes fast. Think 2008, but faster and more global.

I'm going to show you right now how chatgpt tailors itself to your input.

I asked it "What are the top ten things a person should know?"

I got this response:

Here’s a distilled list of ten things that a person should know — not just facts, but core ideas and principles that can guide life, decision-making, and understanding of the world:


---

1. How to Think Critically

Understand bias (including your own), logical fallacies, and how to ask good questions.

Don’t believe everything you think — thoughts are not facts.



---

2. How to Manage Emotions

Emotional intelligence (recognizing, regulating, and expressing feelings) is as important as IQ.

Learn how to sit with discomfort without reacting impulsively.



---

3. Basic Financial Literacy

Know how budgeting, interest, credit, debt, and investments work.

Understand the long-term impact of spending and saving habits.



---

4. How to Communicate Effectively

Active listening, clear speech, and knowing your audience matter more than big words.

Conflict resolution depends more on tone and empathy than on being "right."



---

5. How to Learn and Teach Yourself Anything

Metacognition (thinking about thinking) helps you adapt and improve faster.

Use proven methods like spaced repetition, active recall, and deliberate practice.



---

6. The Importance of Physical and Mental Health

Sleep, exercise, diet, and mental health hygiene are non-negotiable for well-being.

You can’t pour from an empty cup — self-care isn't selfish.



---

7. How Systems Work

From ecosystems to economies, most things are interconnected and affected by feedback loops.

Learn the basics of cause and effect, unintended consequences, and complexity.



---

8. The Power of Habits

Small daily actions shape your future more than big one-time events.

Willpower is unreliable — design your environment to support your goals.



---

9. What Matters Most to You (Core Values)

Know what you stand for and why — it’s your compass in chaos.

Without clarity, you'll end up chasing things that don’t satisfy you.



---

10. The Limits of Certainty

Much of life is uncertain and uncontrollable. Learn to act with courage anyway.

Being “wrong” is not failure — it’s how we grow. Stay curious.



---

Would you like me to turn this into a poster-style PDF, a more spiritual take, or tailor it to a certain age or context (e.g., for your kids, for someone recovering from hardship, etc.)?



My wife's version of chat tells her different things based on what she uses it for. It talks about esoteric knowledge/truth being the number one thing on her list because she talks about that all the time to it.

This just shows us all what you talk to chatgpt about all the damn time.
