AI enthusiasts love to misuse and abuse the goalpost metaphor. It’s practically always an attempt to silence opponents.

It's easily abused by both sides of the debate because there's no strict widely accepted definition. I find it tiring because it's a largely inconsequential benchmark anyways (outside of Microsoft-OpenAI contract disputes).

No, it’s abused almost solely by AI boosters. This isn’t a “both sides” situation.
