Key Notes
model
Jiang reads the snake punishment as a metaphor for the thief's social effect: slippery hidden injury, lingering venom, obsessive suspicion, and misdirected retaliation.
model
Jiang says AI becomes 'God' when it is installed as a constant guardian presence that monitors emotion, comforts sadness, tutors children, and becomes part of the social fabric from birth onward.
diagnosis
