How does one get rid of a broken but otherwise pretty indestructable garbage can? As I found out, sanitation folks won't take it away. My dad suggests, ask GPT-4 what the issue is. Why not, interesting test. I would say it efficiently captured the heart of this mundane paradox:

Over the course of 200,000 years, 108 billion people have lived on Earth. And nearly half, 52 billion, have been killed by mosquitoes. The impact of this disastrous insect has shaped civilization far beyond our expectations, according to historian Timothy C. Winegard.

An honor testifying before @HouseForeign w/@AndyWeberNCB @JaimeYassif @AmeshAA. Key msg: "We can greatly reduce the chance that viruses will be used as weapons. Pandemic virus prediction is a needless game of Russian roulette, and we keep adding more ammunition."
Jaime Yassif@JaimeYassif
Today at 10am ET: @HouseForeign hearing on "Biosecurity for the Future." Looking forward to testifying along with my excellent colleagues @AndyWeberNCB @CSRisks, @AmeshAA @JHSPH_CHS, and @kesvelt foreignaffairs.house.gov/hearings?ID=0F…
