The 2 most controversial AI influencers, both seem autistic. Ed Zitron is a-political, AI skeptic with careful, detailed analysis and clarity. Tyler Cohen is a far-right AI slopthinker- cherry picked evidence and inchoherent logic - much like OAI's chatbot. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsX7...

I couldn't watch him reveal his low IQ in action at MSNBC. When he finally left, the median IQ at MSNBC shot up to above average. Now he's joined the other TV show host- dunce at the Today show.

The AI bubble talk is everywhere now. It’s impossible to avoid. They’re afraid! They all feel in their bones that something is wrong. Everyone is waiting for the other shoe to drop, even the boosters are anxious. An era of smiles dawns!

AI bubble? Here's their plan: 1. Fund their ridiculous spending with private credit. 2. Keep loans off balance sheet to look profitable. 3. Get the private creditors to pass their loan on - to retirement funds. 4. Wait for AI to go bust. 5. Grandma's retirement loses. They get rich.
