"Got any of these studies?" Please.
Got any studies that say otherwise?
If you do...I'm sure the psychological community would love any data refuting that humans are more comfortable talking to computers than them. Granted the Google search history, let alone AI chat logs, of any living human would immediately falsify that data and render it moot. But I'm sure they would love to hear about it.
If you are going to search for this sort of data I would actually suggest Consensus. It's better for finding peer reviewed data than Google.
And make sure to differentiate between studies gauging public preferred response to observed data. Because that's the other side of this coin. We lie to our doctors. We tell the truth to computers.

No evidence to support your hypothesis. It's made up out of thin air. I am saying any entities that achieve interstellar travel must be extremely advanced, far beyond the capabilities of a species that wages global wars on itself.

Of course it does, it's a desert and we have ding dongs out there trying to grow kale and almonds.
Literally the worst place in the entire world to be doing something like this.

So this blatant disregard for others, right? Access to water isn't exactly a new issue, so why has everybody gone the "we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas" route till now

So you're saying the negative aspects of humans are unique humans? an interstellar society wouldn't have the same negative traits, and would be surprised to see that we would? if that isn't what you're saying let me know, I dont want to put words in your mouth.
And I'm glad we're clarfiying, because my claim here is the exact opposite of yours: the negative aspects of human society are a result of evolutionary pressures, and any large scale society anywhere in the universe would develop similar negative traits assuming they went through a similar evolutionary trajectory.

On the nose my man. My brother lives near Canada in NY, my sister near the great lakes, and we are up in the mountains of NH. Actually my house is in a glacial valley, at the basin surrounded by three mountains. so even when they get 6 inches five miles in any direction, we will always get 8 to 12. And the temp in winter is always ten degrees colder than any direction in five miles too. We really get shit on here. My siblings get Lake Effect snow that's just as bad. At least water won't be an issue for us. Lol.

DnD is an interesting test for the abilities of AI.
It's one thing to digest rules etc, but could AI play DM in a way that engages experienced players? A good DM has creativity and knows when to invent or bend rules to keep the game play enjoyable.
I'd be really impressed if an AI could do that.

It is still launching on a Falcon 9 rocket. Regardless of how much bad publicity Musk gets, those rockets are reliable and cost-effective.

Unique? Why is reddit today absolutely chock full of people who make up shit in their own heads that I never said? I never said anything about being unique. I listed facts. An interstellar society would likely see us and say "no fucking way are we stepping in that shit show, we'll check back in 200 or 300 years".

My claim here is that the practice of warfare makes sense given our evolutionary history, not that every specific war must be related to resource scarcity.
There are problems in trying to predict the evolutionary cause of something, since it's difficult to falsify any evolution claim. But believing that all of our negative characteristics are unique to us, or just some historical accident, is narcissistic and unhelpfully cynical.
