Is Owl House mainly a kids show? It seems like it.

Or buy a second hand pc for not much more than 50 euros/dollars. Install linux and it'll be more than fast enough for torrenting, playing media and a bit of surfing. Companies are off loading anything that can't run windows 11 right now.

I think another potential use, is targeting and manipulating vulnerable people for political reasons.
Perhaps convince them to stay at home on election day. Perhaps convince members of undesirable demographics to disproportionately kill themselves. Perhaps make vulnerable people so paranoid or scared that they end up killing people you want to get rid of. Perhaps convince someone vulnerable to commit politically convenient violence, which can be used as a false flag or to rally support.
Why leave that kind of thing to chance, when you can use AI to tip the scales in your favour?
