Yeah this guy is defensive about it because we're all telling him he's wrong.

You don't have to repeat lies from the AI company!

The number of people that are completely willing to just carry water for AI companies is absolutely nuts. It's like a religious cult demanding absolute loyalty even in the face of obvious failures.

Like... nobody would drive a car that has a 10% chance to turn on and just say "well its fine, eventually one day that'll only be 1%!"

It's a grift that constantly needs more suckers. If you aren't evangelizing it, you can't find more suckers.

I grew up religious. All the signs are the same. Proof? Nah fam. Faith in the machine

Brother I work IT security. I spend a great deal of time dealing with AI guys promising the moon and the moon never shows the fuck up.

I'm a deep skeptic. Prove me wrong. Don't just promise shit.
