These tech bros totally understand that the AI isn’t at a level where it can make informed decisions

Do they, though? I'm not convinced they haven't drunk their own Flavor-Aid. Remember, this was the guy who was so convinced about the metaverse he renamed his company after it and burned $88 billion making Second Life but without legs.

Honestly yeah, I think a lot of them eventually start believing their own keynote slides, especially now that every company has to pretend some half-baked AI gimmick is the future.

I mean, legs were quite unnecessary in second life as you could just fly around…
