   It looks like snit's newly found "God", ChatGpt, has gone rogue and turned   
   against him.   
      
   From 2001:A Space Odyssey:: "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that".   
      
   Get ready for snit to find every bogus excuse to deny it's true even though   
   it is and he knows it.   
   Do yourself a favor and don't encourage snit because it's just a rabbit hole   
   designed to feed his addictions.
