Just been for a lie down and have stopped drinking for the day (I think) and feeling a lot better now.

AI is already here. It can read your mind and control your thoughts and dreams and inflict physical pain and discomfort.

I've had it for the past 10 years. :(

Computer's still giving me a hard time although bearable currently. Using alcohol to cope with the anxiety which isn't very healthy but I don't see any alternative at present. Tend to wake up feeling OK but then deteriorate thought the day and evening. I feel stuck in a rut. Don't seem to be able to cope with life without consuming unhealthy amounts of alcohol. :(

AI is pretty dumb at this point tbh. Recently I used it to aid programming. It quickly created a nice pentagram for me, but for more complex things it produces lots of errors. In 1-2 years this will be completely different though.

Anyway, you should replace alcohol by something else. There are other molecules which influence GABA receptors (like alcohol does) and have less severe side-effects. Though they're equally addictive, and impair cognitive capabilities.

Recently I drank a whole bottle of wine which I had untouched since 2017. Never again. I would take Alprazolam instead of alcohol.

AI in the public domain is very dumb. If you had developed the kind of tech I believe I'm experiencing you'd keep it top secret so as to avoid panic amongst the population.

I'm convinced one day I'll be vindicated and people like fnord who dismiss me as a schizophrenic crank will be proved wrong.

What makes you so important that the "government" would bother to single you out to put a "computer" in your head?

It's not dismissing you to point out that you're clearly demonstrating that you're experiencing delusions that would be typical of schizophrenia.

I have to agree with funeralxempire.

Rossall, you are almost certainly experiencing a paranoid delusion. It might be schizophrenia, or you might have something like paranoid personality disorder.

We don't know you properly but you can bet that you do not have a government computer in your head.

And if you really can't be convinced otherwise by other people, you need to convince yourself that there isn't one in your head, since it sounds like it ruining your life.

It's not a case of me being important. More ticking the right boxes for any beings looking to develop this technology:

Loner
Alcoholic on state benefits with lots of time on their hands
Technical background (used to work as an electronics technician, had job interviews with BBC engineering and GCHQ - Cheltenham)
History of mental health problems including ADHD, anxiety and depression so easily to get hospitalised and diagnosed schizophrenic

The computer is not in my head but their AI is able to interact wirelessly with my brain in my opinion.

Well...to interact wirelessly they must have some kind of receiver device somehow implanted in your head. Shouldnt they?

That's what current human science says publically but what if they're not human and ahead of us technically or if there's been a top secret programme to develop this on earth?

There's a lot of unfounded what-ifs in your logic.

Even acknowledging that what you've put together is an opinion doesn't really change anything unless you're also actively trying to come up with other potential explanations.

It's not entirely impossible that you've been targeted by technology that isn't known to exist, but it's also very unlikely. Accepting a very unlikely explanation without remaining adequately skeptical seems to be how a lot of delusions start.

We both know the faeries aren't harassing you, but this sounds perfectly analogous to those sorts of claims, only with techno-babble explanations instead of magic.

I agree with all that you have said.

To Rossall:

What specific kinds of things do you experience that you interpret as a government computer interacting with your brain? And what are your reasons for believing that a government computer interacting with your brain is the best explanation for those experiences?
