How hard would it be to ask Nonno to name the eight wars he stopped? It wouldn’t be difficult to follow-up with “I’m kind of a ding-dong when it comes to military history but I know you definitely are not! Let me write down the wars you stopped so I can try my best to remember them in the future.”

Looks like he can’t make eye contact with another human being as he delivers his same old lie. He should boil it down to “I am ignorant .”

The tell was all the tech prezidents raving about how AI was actually doing all the things they said they wanted it to do and it’s obviously not true.

Like Elon’s promise of completely autonomous vehicles by 2022.
