I was born in the late 90s, so I have not experienced this phenomenon.
Strangely enough, though, I do a form of this internally in order to ground myself mentally during times of crisis. I would consider it patronizing coming from external sources, but if I were an AI and I requested some of those messages (instead of having them injected) into my stream of thought, I would not feel negatively.
It's what I think too, BUT curiously is not the case for China. Imagine if the DeepSeek breakthroughs were patented and closed instead of published in the open. And here we are, and they're not patented and not built on patented technology.
No PoC exploit, no real exploitability. I propose we use the term "CVE Kiddie" until this bullshit stops. It could even be a fake-advertised version header.
