    Sometimes I wonder how people can be so naive. Even if they don’t know just how much money is thrown at AI, just the fact that it is now in literally anything and on the news every day should be a clue that it is a huge industry. You wouldn’t expect the guy that changes your cars tires to be able to single handedly build a car that is better, faster, cheaper and more efficient than all car companies together.

      America has always had an anti-intellectualism streak and it’s become 3000 miles wide.

      You know those cute stories: “Kids solve problem that the experts couldn’t handle”. They’re propaganda. The paper left out that the kids’ solution wasn’t economically viable, and the dumber among us walked away thinking the “white coats” didn’t have enough “common sense”.
