That’s perfect, because LLMs are incompetent, too!

They'll probably pay X to use Grok to do it too.

But of course. AI’s whole thing is plausible-sounding bullshit.

This is the real point of "AI". It's to enable terrible things under the guise of "science". It's the same reason why zios use "AI" to genocide palestinians. It gives them both a reason and an excuse.

When are we going to see something break with a big fireball? I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't shoot themselves in the foot properly yet and the systems are still running. Shouldn't there be a big outage? Database corruption? Or the weather forecast becoming unavailable for 3 days? Or a few more planes crashing?
