Real life LLMs have shown me the potential for the world to be just as miserable and dystopia as in a lot of sci-fi but also if this is where we are now, then maybe most sci-fi doesn’t take it far enough. People will stop thinking for themselves and rely on AI for everything and blindly believe what it tells them.

This doesn’t really answer the question but I was reading Asimov short story the other day “Belief” and it felt like he’d hit the nail on the head such a long time ago.

Someone might recognise your issue though and have suggestions, even if you can’t reproduce it exactly

This seems very odd, I’ve been using syncthing for a good 5 years and never had a single file corrupt - might be worth opening an issue on their github

I’ve been using it for 8 years and haven’t paid, is there any benefit for paying?
