(5) recalibrate our Asimovian Universe Empire / Foundation 2026 TeoTwawKi / 2032 Darkest Interregnum / 2042 Demographic-flip thematic narrative waypoints,
(6) deliberate pro / con as appropriate so I am less likely to be blindsided, and you do not go hallucinatory / sycophantic
(7) update me on important latest pricing matter to us - i.e. share indices of USA, HKG, Japan, China, and Gold, Silver, Platinum, Copper, and DXY (value of USD). then
(8) give me a report in text and in female voice file. Now I shall do walk, ice coffee, then get on with the rest of my day deliberating, shuffling, keep eyes on markets. I shall upload to you some articles, and some VLOGs ... so wait and hold off analysis / synthesis / integration / text+voice files until I do so ...
