The AI hype bros on social media are the actual worst and have done more damage than anything else to how I feel about AI these days.

The grift has been at unbearable levels for months now and it actually drove me to delete my X account recently.

Yep. Everything is exactly two models away. It's the new fusion. Yet after $X billion expenditure I still have to argue with the finest turd squeezed out of the industry over simple things that a trained monkey could work out.

The whole thing is propped up on faith, hype and investment capital. Now I work in the latter and we're not impressed.

Edit: As for X, removing it from my existence was an improvement in mental health for sure.

That is one really, really impressive monkey. If it were true. Probably just a bad description of reality.
Monkey as a synonym of a completely fungible creature.
Well, deleting the twitverse is an upside to your life, completely outside the whole imaginary intelligence topic.
