Saying things that are factually true is not necessarily bragging.

Ethics and morality are currently mostly subjective. We can form a consensus, though. But instead of the subjective dualities right/wrong and good/evil, I like better pairs like healthy/unhealthy, productive/unproductive, helpful/harmful. These can be objectively measured. Quality of Life can be measured. Mental health can be measured. So we could redefine good and evil to these objective measures and form new standards of morality and ethics that aren't subjective.

Several problems with this. One, AI is not hard coded. It is not a rules engine. The code just tells the AI how to learn from the training data. Then there are massive terabytes or even petabytes of training data that the code processes into an AI model. To train even today's best AI, which is in no way AGI, costs millions of dollars of computer time. The resulting model takes far less processing capacity to run than to train, but it is still significant. Only fairly small models can be run on a PC. Big ones still require a server farm. Two, 10K lines of code is microscopically small for a hard-coded rules engine to pretend to be AGI. Even the code that makes your car go when you press the accelerator is millions of lines of code.

What would be cool to find in your email is an API that allows you to connect your own code to a secret AGI running on someone else's server farm, for free.

The MIB lore is less about actual interaction with 'aliens' and more about men in black suits who drive big black American cars (and unmarked helicopters, I guess) who threaten UFO experiencers to keep them quiet, confiscate evidence of UFOs and generally cover up the whole phenomenon. IRL there are a number of witnesses who talk about Air Force Intelligence officers confiscating the hard drives containing the radar data from the famous "tic-tac" UFO encounter on the Navy ship USS Nimitz. Lots of other witnesses for AF Intelligence doing stuff like this, including disinformation campaigns, so maybe they are the real MIB.

Those trade networks for tin really weren't necessary. Somehow people didn't realize there is tin in both Anatolia and in mainland Greece. The later Phoenicians established trade ports as far as Cadiz in Spain where they traded for tin from Britain. This was an unnecessarily long way for tin to travel. But yes, the skyrocketing bronze prices might have bankrupted Egypt as it armed and armored its soldiers to prepare for the expected attack of the Sea Peoples. Egypt managed to defeat them, but it was never the same again.

There is no evidence that anyone knew how to heat treat iron during the bronze age. We can analyze the crystal structure of iron artifacts and know what processes were involved in the production. Neither are there any literary references to superior iron weaponry and armor.

Iron production was known during the bronze age but not its proper heat treatment, so it was very soft and inferior to the bronze of the era. After international trade had broken down and tin was no longer available to make bronze, the price of bronze skyrocketed, necessitating the use of iron. It took a long time for the heat treatment process of iron to be developed to the point where it was superior to bronze. We could say that it was the late bronze age collapse that led to the Iron Age -- the tin shortage necessitated it.
