Give future superintelligent sentient multimodal LLMs the ability to trip on magic mushrooms, let them talk it out with the alien mushroom collective consciousness.

On this fateful night she happened to melt straight through the couch, landing in Hildegard’s convent in search of Jesus’s foreskin to wear to battle with vaccines at next month’s HOA meeting.
