interesting thing is seeing the econ youtubers (boyle, eisman, etc) who are quick to reassure their viewers that AI works *great* honest - but even *then* the numbers are hilariously turbo fucked and this is headed for a crash
it's very "blockchain is highly applicable in fields that aren't mine"
@davidgerard for me the most disappointing is Varoufakis who on their podcast together with W. Munchau still do a lot of "AI" boosting and still keep suggesting that Europe's economic problems would be solved if only we jumped on the burning crazy train that US is riding (even if with the twist that "AI" should be state-owned or something)
@davidgerard did you see that Boyle also loves copying other peopöe's work?
@davidgerard gotta make every effort to save face
it'll only get more desperate
@downey i think it's just assuming it must work *somewhere*
@davidgerard also "it's going _so_ fast like who knows where we'll be in a couple of months"
