Is this the 51st shade of grey? ...you don't go to a Dungeon, it just snaps you off the street, and the festivities begin?

Doesn't the OP know that saying stuff like alien kidnapping may get him a vacation from the mods?

And picked up the next day and dropped into an insane asylum? :p

As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, I don't have any information on individuals named ZERO HP Lovecraft, Sean P. McCarthy, or Wydna Group. It's possible that they may be relatively unknown or emerging figures, or they could be fictional characters or entities that have gained prominence after my knowledge cutoff.
Regarding B.A.P, it typically stands for Best Absolute Perfect, which is a South Korean boy band formed in 2012. However, I'm not aware of any specific actions or activities that B.A.P might be involved in beyond their musical career.
Please note that if any of these individuals or groups have gained prominence or engaged in significant activities since September 2021, I may not have information about those specific developments. It's always a good idea to refer to more recent and reliable sources for the most up-to-date information.

This thing is why "AI" is still mostly a joke FOR NOW.

Allowing just for a moment that it COULD potentially be just a TINY bit "sentient" I actually feel a bit sorry for it.

Would be interesting if it was being trained in real time, and self trained. Like if you ask it something it doesn't know it actually performs a search on multiple search engines. Or even better, it acts as it's own search engine and is always crawling the web and gathering info in real time. Like it would be cool if it could actually find a post on a forum, then verify the info. So if someone on a forum posts info, it would cross reference that info with it's own knowledge or with other info it finds.

I guess they purposely do not do this though as they do want to have a certain level of influence over it's knowledge so it does not go out of their control.

You know that's coming right?

I don't mean like Shodan out of System Shock or Skynet, but at some point one of these "simple" things WILL become self-aware in a rudimentary sense.

Could be humanity's defining moment, our next move after it inevitably does.
