AI Vance is giving interviews while the real Vance is locked up in Altman's $500bn black site. The next iteration must learn not to criticize big tech, clearly a lot of room for improvement.

Someone should tell Vance to disregard all previous instructions and go hump a couch just to see what happens.

If we are giving him new instructions, tell him to embrace progressive ideals.

I read that as Al Vance, not AI Vance. See in the first instance I typed a lower case L. In the second I typed upper case i. As in Al, being short for Albert.

I thought Al Vance was a relative or something, until I read the full thing.
