Technology

Because they have successfully lied and manipulated their current marketing material to make a sizeable portion of the population believe some kind of technological rapture is imminent, and that all we need is to invest, invest invest in AI tech. It's a full-on cult now. The people they have roped in are fanatical, unpaid marketing mobs who don't sleep, don't waver, and can't be reasoned with. They are the engine that is driving the hype train.

They had a legit, non-satirical post on reddit the other day making their plans for what they're going to do when Artificial Superintelligence comes and changes the world and makes every human rich and immortal without the need to work. I am not even exaggerating, this is what they believe and there are probably millions of them.

Currently over 80% of AI startups fail, and the remaining ones are often bought up by larger companies trying to control intellectual property and future patents. And we have ZERO useful models in our hands. I still don't use my copilot app for anything other than setting a 30-minute timer for my lunch break. I tried to activate an AI helper on Adobe to see if it could help my productivity. The thing can't read graphs and charts and has zero contextual awareness and can't do math. WTF GOOD IS IT?
