And the #fusionskonstante (vgl. #Erdölkonstante) also applies to #AI : GenAI is coming soon!!!

And then there's the #nuclearEnergyParadox, where 2 institutes only publish studies that claim growth there, which does not happen but they are quoted the most. Same happens here with #AI, because lobbyism, money, greed.

#AIagents: As #generativeAI and #agenticAI are adopted, #cognitivedebt, the accumulation of knowledge and understanding lost due to #rapiddevelopment, becomes a greater threat than #technicaldebt. This debt, residing in developers’ minds, can hinder progress and understanding of software systems. http://margaretstorey.com/blog/2026/02/09/cognitive-debt/?eicker.news #tech #media #news
