@jimbob@aus.social My sincere hope is that AI is exposed for the wasteful fraud it proves itself to be (over and over) before it ruins large segments of the economy and society.
The most egregious failure of AI is its inability to admit that it doesn't know what it very clearly doesn't know -- and instead, produces confident-sounding bullshit.
The dot-bomb-v2.0 is long overdue.

@JustinDerrick@mstdn.ca @jimbob@aus.social I hate that I could drop the name of any of our unserious (industry, national) leaders in place of AI and it would be just as accurate. Our cultural moment really is the final approach of falsehood’s flight and the truth limping after it is lost over the horizon.

@JustinDerrick@mstdn.ca @jimbob@aus.social I'm very worried that when the bubble bursts, governments will decide AI is too big to fail and is now essential infrastructure. Public money to be poured into the black hole indefinitely...
