This is an excellent article. Anthropic's "paper" is just rambling slop without any details that inserts the word "Claude" 50 times.

We have arrived at a stage where pseudoscience is enough to convince investors. This is different from 2000, where the tech existed but its growth was overstated.

Tesla could announce a fully-self-flying space car with an Alcubierre drive by 2027 and people would upvote it on X and buy shares.





I suppose it's the problem with AI in general. It's an interesting technology looking for a business model that just isn't there, at least not one that comes even close to justifying the cost.

I hate the fact that it has sucked all the oxygen from the room and enabled an entirely new cadre of grifters all of whom will escape accountability when it unfolds.
