For these bosses, AI is the chance to wire the toy steering wheel they play with all day directly into the corporate drive-train. With enough AI slaves, the boss can run the company all on their own:

In other words, you don't need to be a solipsist to bet on AI. It is sufficient to believe that *bosses* are solipsists, who can be relied upon to empty the corporate coffers in exchange for worker-replacing magic beans.

This is true in many scam sectors. I'm sure that most of the people who finance the supplements that Andrew Tate and Joe Rogan hawk understand that they're just a way to give yourself *very* expensive piss. They don't have to believe supplements work to believe that there is an army of desperate and credulous young men who will give *anything* for the promise they dangle. 21/
