The rest:
Drug Enforcement Administration, but is illegal in some states. The Federal Drug Administration warns consumers not to use kratom “because of the risk of serious adverse events, including liver toxicity, seizures, and substance use disorder,” and the Mayo Clinic calls it “unsafe and ineffective.”’
So, not heroin?
That only helps some, but not enough. I would bitch and report this article to the moderators, but the moderator is the one who posted the goddamn article!
TBF if you’re still on reddit, heroin may be a healthier alternative
Don’t mind if I do!
Reddit has an AI? That’s news to me.
I mean ok, but how does that help with the windshield wipers?

The thing is, in the context, it was probably painfully obviously a joke. But AI doesn’t understand jokes. And they removed it from context.

It wasn’t. It was on a “Family Medicine” subreddit, which the name alone gives off red flags.
Don’t get medical advice from Reddit. Don’t even have “medical advice” subreddits. The bot was probably doing the best it could with the information available. But, of course, I can’t get the full context, because OP linked to a paid article.

Are you telling me the very shifted definition of Artificial Intelligence no actually lacks intelligence?!
Next you’ll be trying to tell me it’s just old mathematical algorithms running incredibly fast on modern technology so as to give the illusion of machine intelligence.
