Jake in the desert<p>I try to avoid overt cynicism here, as it's not a good look, but this is a great piece by Bryan McMahon for The American Prospect with (ironically) all Midjourney generated images on the instability of the "AI" bubble. It mentions Ed Zitron and his 'Rot Economy' concept, if you're familiar, I've talked about him and that here before. </p><p>Basically, if you're as sick of this bullshit as most folks I've seen, want a great rundown of all of it (how and why we're in this mess and where all of it is probably heading), this here is the article.</p><p><a href="https://prospect.org/power/2025-03-25-bubble-trouble-ai-threat" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">prospect.org/power/2025-03-25-</span><span class="invisible">bubble-trouble-ai-threat</span></a></p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/NoAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NoAI</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/AIBullshit" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AIBullshit</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AI</span></a></p>

PositivDenken 🤯<p>Apparently I just outsmarted both ChatGPT and DeepSeek, who were unable to fix a broken configuration file. A friend asked for help. Probably because all AI can offer is adding a clueless copypasta to the mess. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AIBullshit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AIBullshit</span></a></p>
