NEW VIDEO: When tech boosters claim that "A.I. will take over the world", they're trying to distract us from the real danger: that their dumbass companies are hyping tech that simply cannot do what they claim, then using it to screw us all over right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ro130m-f_yk
A.I. is B.S.

@adamconover Amazing video, but one nitpick/addendum: tech hype isn't just for investors.

When I was at a mid-level tech company a few years back, *every* dev in the building owned and talked relentlessly about crypto. They believed the hype, too, because tech's greatest cons are about hooking the workers. Helps to make sure they screw over everyone else while not asking too many pesky questions.
