Comment on How to Argue with an AI Booster

Comments

It can't be mere coincidence that there's a significant overlap between crypto bros and AI boosters in my social circles.

Vanishingly few crypto boosters have a grip on the mathematics or software engineering. They clearly sense (or believe they sense) a money making opportunity because cryptocurrency is new. Bluster, a hearty handshake or the projection of confidence and hard work is all they think is necessary to make a fortune before the normies figure it all out.

I think the same sort of "peaked in highschool" folks would be dazzled by LLMs, so that overlap seems natural to me.
