The amount of people around me who take these soundbites at face value is quite depressing. I feel like I am going insane. I intensely dislike what the world is becoming, and I have now idea how to avoid the consequences.

It just looks like in a few years most people and organizations will be simple LLM lackeys just asking a chatbot what to do every hour of everyday then going to bed and repeating it.

I think this is the goal. No one involved actually believes in "AI". All they need is for ever more people and teams to just become dependent on whatever software nightmare they pull out of the mountain of GPUs they're hooking up.

At this point, it is not a bubble, it doesn't matter if there will be something valuable at the end or not. They're trying to become inescapable and it is working.
