I think this will only work with people narrating their lives on social media.

"Got coffee from my favorite Granier at La Rambla! Ready of new day of work designing hats for dogs"

"Me and Bobby heading to Madrid to see my friend Concepcion. Do you like his new hat?"

"Just got nominated for 'best business-casual hat' at this year's Barkies! So proud"

And so on...

Because how are you going to de-anonymize some random ramblings about Linux and beans? Everyone likes Linux and beans.

Nope. It's in special tiny ways we author text. I think.

Who am I? No forreal, WHO AM I? Last I remember I was on a cruise around the Caribbean. I blacked out one night while at the casino and when I came to I was on a beach in the middle of nowhere with a toothless man who spoke a language I couldn't comprehend, unable to remember my name or anything from before the cruise. Thankfully he still has a dial up connection somehow in the year of our lord 2026, but I've been on this island for two years now. SOMEONE COME GET ME!

Your wife is much happier with me now and the children are already calling me dad. It's time to move on.

You think that is bad? 3 weeks ago I went camping while jacking off and I came across my family doctor's grandma staring at a pile of leaves. As I got closer I noticed it wasn't a pile of leaves at all but rather a man that I recognized from somewhere. I realized I had seen him while on a trip to the UK last year at an authentic British fish and chips place my wife and 6 uncles had lunch at. He was vinegar balls Edward, an old fisherman who comes to your table for you to squeeze malt vinegar out of his balls onto your fries for an authentic British experience.

So here he is on my camping jack just laying there dead.

I did what any smart person would do and I pulled out my Swiss Army knife and hacked off his sack. 2 weeks later I went back to the UK and sold his scrotum and balls to that restaurant, they were about to go out of business without malt vinegar so they were extremely appreciative when I brought them the vinegar balls. The mayor of the town named a street after me and gave me six packs of smokes. I smoked them all that day despite being a non smoker because I needed to show that I was thankful for the gift.

In 3 months I'll be going on another camping trip with my step grandpa, no jacking off allowed this time but maybe I'll find a corpse that'Il haunt me forever. All it takes is 6 packs of smokes and a pocket full of belly buttons. That's right, I'm totally a smoker now because smoking is the coolest fuckin thing anyone could ever do.

Hmmm interesting. I’ve never used AI to try and find out stuff about myself. Maybe I’ll try. Just curious.

I kinda think I want it to try. I make little effort to hide my location or identity, and I think I'd like to see the results.

...just without saying who I am before I get those results. And my desire to stay anonymous-ish and not give it a chance to cheat means I can't satisfy I have the right to the identify of myself if it finds who I am.

Quite seriously, I cannot prove I have the right to make it search for me, for myself, without giving it too much information or without risking the leak of private info to a so-far unidentified stranger if it finds anything.

Catch-22
