Because we switched from an agriculture society (150 years ago over half of Americans were farmers), to an industrial society (peaking around WWII), to a modern one (the biggest stocks are tech). These were huge transitions.

It’s extremely common in boxing too. Don’t think this one is a conspiracy. A lot of religious people out there.

Athletes as a group tend to be very superstitious (lucky socks, etc.). Tend to be more religious.

If AI really was a free resource, then maybe that part almost makes sense. It’s losing billions per quarter, it’s not free.

“helps everyone make things” instead of having to rely on skill and expertise and therefore makes everything equal,

everyone else is catching up”.

In both of these statements it sounds like they’re saying, “the AI is smarter than me, and I’m stupid without it.”

If you invest today it will be better in the future. It will be so good that we will be Star Trek soon. Invest today.

“Zoopla” I have no idea what that app is and I already hate it.

How the F did this guy convince all the world’s richest people to invest in his chatbot?

When the day comes, I’m absolutely BLASTING ‘ding dong the witch is dead’ for the whole day.
