The purposes was to send a message to extraterrestrials who might find the spacecraft as the spacecraft journeyed through interstellar space. The following text is a greeting collaboratively assembled by GPT-2 and GPT-J-6B:
Hello, my friend. During the entire Golden Record project, all decisions were made in collaboration with the community, and it is our responsibility to keep this going. I have no plans to step down, and you shouldn’t either.
Now, that went on so long that the movement failed that there was no alternative but to them. They were able to deal with the revolutionaries of the Chartists' time, but they were unable to deal with the men of another century ago. They were able to deal with the trades union agitation, but they were unable to deal with the revolutionaries of the Chartists' day to deal with the women of the past. They were unable to deal with the women of the past because they could not deal with the revolutionary women of the past.
They have said to us, government rests upon force, government rests upon consent, and government rests upon force rests upon consent, but we have not said consent, we have said: we are with the government at the cost of the person, that they cannot cope with the additional force on their behalf.
We are with the women of all civilised countries in the war for women's suffrage. We are with the women in every civilised country in the world who have not elected a leader, but who have got the vote of confidence, who have persuaded their governments to grant suffrage to women.
I am convinced, if the truth be admitted, that the slave trade, in its very nature, is the source of such kind of tragedies; for my own part, so clearly am I convinced of the mischief’s inseparable from it, that I should hardly want and farther evidence than my own mind would furnish, by the most simple deductions.
Perhaps if their premises had been laid down as my principal, that evidences, and especially interested evidences, are not to be judges of the argument. In matters of fact, of which they speak, I admit their competency; I mean not to suspect their credibility with respect to any thing they see of hear, or themselves personally know; but, in reasoning about the causes and effect, I hold them to be totally incompetent. So far, therefore, from submitting to their conclusions in this respect I utterly discard them. I take their premises readily and fairly; but upon these premises, I must judge for myself: and the House, I trust, nay, I perfectly well know, will; in like manner judge for itself. Confident assertions therefore, not of facts, but of supposed consequences of facts, however pressed by the Liverpool delegates, or any other interested persons, go for nothing in my estimation: and it is necessary that parliament should proceed upon this principle, as well in this as every other public question in which interested evidences must be examined. I trust gentlemen will judge for themselves, in spite of all the positive proofs of so many witnesses on the spot to the contrary.
Therefore and even as a recompense for my brethren's deaths I can do no more, I know not what to make of it. Nor am I the judge of this question. I am the speaker; I can tell you of no thing that would convince you of anything; but, as I supposed, of little value if decided moments ago. Are people going to believe what they see, that it is only a song and dance toil till they are slaves? Notons and Gears are the only tools by which men in olden times manufactured and shared the spoils of war.
And that's what I'm saying. Are you prepared for anything? Of course you are. You can't keep the faith with which you sold me out of bankruptcy; you can only endure it. The feverish ambition of your youth, the fettered mind of your youth, fills the air of every room you sit in, until, in the words of the wise, "tis necessary that women should be fed and clothed and that they should be able to consent to be slaughtered, that they may be for sale and bartered with one another, that they may have their say used against thee," the true and just end of the service is itself service itself.
Far from it! For what is it that men give themselves for nothing? What is it that they give themselves for the well-being of any man? For all such things, what small things are they that are performed? What are they, the nation, that we do not listen to them. We take their word that they shall not take our word, that they shall not take our protection, that we shall not be guided any more by their word than by theirs is to be guided by theirs.
