I'm downvoting primarily to discourage deliberately sensationalist titles. I don't want to start seeing "What this AI Gatekeeper did will shock you!" and "Five reasons why MWI will show you how everything you thought you knew about quantum mechanics is a lie!" and "These ten effective altruists will restore your faith in humanity!"
