I was in your shoes a few years ago. I barely ate and struggled sleeping for longer than was healthy. My therapist recommended me the book: "Sophie's World", which is a both a story and also a crash course in philosophy and its history at the same time. Reading that slowly and reflecting on each chapter has personally helped me a lot in being more okay with existing.

Don't ignore the whole other stuff with the failed bombing etc.

From wikipedia:

At 10:10 am,[75] Franz Ferdinand's car approached and Čabrinović threw his bomb. The bomb bounced off the folded back convertible cover into the street.[76] The bomb's timed detonator caused it to explode under the next car, putting that car out of action, leaving a 1-foot-diameter (0.30 m), 6.5-inch-deep (170 mm) crater,[75] and wounding 16–20 people.[77]

Čabrinović swallowed his cyanide pill and jumped into the Miljacka river. Čabrinović's suicide attempt failed, as the old cyanide only induced vomiting, and the Miljacka was only 13 cm deep due to the hot, dry summer.[78] Police dragged Čabrinović out of the river, and he was severely beaten by the crowd before being taken into custody.

Just the mental image of him chucking himself into a river after the failed bombing and then also failing his suicide on two fronts...

As we are assumed to get enough oxygen no matter what, I think blood thinners to stop us from dying of a stroke would be fair game too.

The train of thought that leads to that belief is usually along the lines of: We're the only sample we have. It's more likely than not that what our planet and ecosystem has produced is not an outlier but the norm.

That being said, of course I strongly believe those to be fake and also assume that there is a huge amount of variance in what intelligent life with potential to develop spacefaring technology could look like. Therefore we're probably not an outlier, but the possibilities within non-outliers are still so vast that our first contact would likely look a lot different.

Angela Merkel is a famous example of someone who has a doctorate in quantum chemistry and was a researcher before turning to politics.

Small addition: I wouldn't call O3 (Ozone) charged. It "only" has some partial charge like water (H2O) does, but overall it has the same number of protons and electrons.

Now you could have ozonide (O3-), but that's definitely a way more rare case.

I disagree completely. Read the manga from where the first season ended. They skipped over multiple arcs (one of them being a fan favorite) at first and then completely derailed the story for the second half of season 2.

Everything is a poison.

It doesn't have the ability to just look up anything from its training data, that stuff is encoded in its parameters. Still, the input has to be encoded in a way that causes the correct "chain reaction" of excited/not excited neurons.

Beyond that, it's not just a carbon copy from what was in the training either because you can tell it what variable names to use, which order to do things in, change some details, etc. If it was simply a lookup that wouldn't be possible. The training made it able to generalize what it learned to some extent.
