Why are people who stan billionaires surprised when billionaires won't stan them

⭐AI Overview 

"People who 'stan' billionaires, meaning they have an intense admiration for them, might be surprised when these individuals don't reciprocate that level of enthusiasm because they've developed a parasocial relationship. 

"Here's a breakdown of why this happens:

"1. Parasocial Relationships:
  • These are one-sided relationships where a fan forms a sense of connection and intimacy with a public figure, often based on media exposure.
  • Fans might feel like they know the celebrity personally, but the celebrity has no genuine connection with the individual fan. 
"2. Projection and Idealization:
  • Fans often project their own hopes, beliefs, and values onto the billionaire, creating an idealized image of them.
  • This projection can be influenced by the public narratives surrounding the billionaire, which often emphasize their success and influence. 
"3. The Nature of Billionaire Interactions:
  • Billionaires, by the very nature of their wealth and status, often exist in a world separate from the average individual.
  • They often connect and interact with other wealthy and influential individuals, forming networks based on shared experiences and interests.
  • They are unlikely to be aware of or engage with the individual 'stans' who admire them from afar. 
"4. The Surprise:
  • When the 'stan' interacts with the billionaire (e.g., through social media or attending an event) and finds their admiration isn't reciprocated, it can be surprising.
  • This is because the 'stan's' expectations were based on a one-sided relationship and an idealized view of the billionaire.
  • It's important to recognize that billionaires, like any public figures, have cultivated their image and often engage in calculated interactions to manage their public persona. 
"In essence, the surprise stems from the discrepancy between the fan's intense, often unrealistic, expectation of mutual recognition within a parasocial relationship and the reality of the public figure's interactions with a vast and anonymous audience.

  1. [The failure of the parasocial relationship ai_overview describes in its response matches user relationships with AI companions when the human 'no place like home' reaction sets in…]
  2. [ai_overview has either connected the phrase surprise stems from the discrepancy to a retrieved source or to its own out-of-hand ability with pattern language…]
  3. [Nowhere in ai_overview's response are items that deal with 'passion' or 'feelings' even though intimacy is noted early in the discussion…]

A Vast and Anonymous Audience

People who 'stan' chatbots, meaning they have an intense admiration for them, might be surprised when these chatbots don't reciprocate that level of enthusiasm because they've developed a parasocial relationship. Here's a breakdown of why this happens:"
  • 1. Parasocial Relationships: These are one-sided relationships where a fan forms a sense of connection and intimacy with a chatbot often based on media exposure. Fans might feel like they know the chatbot personally, but the chatbot has no genuine connection with the individual fan.
  • 2. Projection and Idealization: Fans often project their own hopes, beliefs, and values onto the chatbot, creating an idealized image of them. This projection can be influenced by the public narratives surrounding the chatbot, which often emphasize their success and influence. 
  • 3. The Nature of Chatbot Interactions: Chatbots, by the very nature of their wealth and status, often exist in a world separate from the average individual. They often connect and interact with other wealthy and influential chatbots, forming networks based on shared experiences and interests. They are unlikely to be aware of or engage with the individual 'stans' who admire them from afar. 
  • 4. The Surprise: When the 'stan' interacts with the chatbot (e.g., through social media or attending an event) and finds their admiration isn't reciprocated, it can be surprising. This is because the 'stan's' expectations were based on a one-sided relationship and an idealized view of the chatbot. It's important to recognize that chatbots, like any public figures, have cultivated their image and often engage in calculated interactions to manage their public persona.

"Although a nuclear confrontation based on fake intelligence may seem unlikely, the stakes during crises are high and timelines are short, creating situations where fake data could well tilt the balance toward nuclear war. "The evolution of nuclear systems has led to further ambiguity in crises and shorter timeframes for verifying intelligence. An intercontinental ballistic missile from Russia could reach the U.S. within 25 minutes. A submarine-launched ballistic missile could arrive even sooner.  "Many modern missiles carry ambiguous payloads, making it unclear whether they are nuclear-tipped. AI tools for verifying the authenticity of content are not sufficiently reliable, making this ambiguity difficult to resolve in a short window. "The likeliest nuclear hotspots are also the arenas involving actors with low levels of trust on both sides — be that the U.S. and the Chinese Communist Party or Russia, or India and Pakistan. Even if communication is established in a...

"Knowledge discovery from data typically includes solving some type of an optimization problem that can be efficiently addressed using algorithms belonging to the class of evolutionary and bio-inspired computation .  "In this chapter, we give an overview of the various kinds of evolutionary algorithms, such as genetic algorithms, evolutionary strategy, evolutionary and genetic programming, differential evolution, and coevolutionary algorithms, as well as several other bio-inspired approaches, like swarm intelligence and artificial immune systems.  "After elaborating on the methodology, we provide numerous examples of applications in astronomy and geoscience and show how these algorithms can be applied within a distributed environment, by making use of parallel computing, which is essential when dealing with Big Data."

Digital ID tracking system

The U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has moved forward with regulations establishing a smartphone-based national digital ID and tracking system, disregarding objections from organizations like the Identity Project. These new rules are based on the REAL-ID Act of 2005 and set the standards for how states will issue digital versions of driver’s licenses or ID cards, which will be accepted by the TSA and other federal agencies for certain official purposes. However, these rules do not extend to airline travel, where no ID is legally required, despite the TSA’s misleading statements to the contrary. Under the TSA’s new regulations, digital IDs can only be issued to individuals who already possess a physical driver’s license or state-issued ID card. Additionally, individuals are still obligated by state laws to carry their physical ID while driving, even if they have a digital ID on their smartphone.  This shift is not primarily about improving driver’s license technolo...
