@EFreethought @AmyZenunim I know this is a rhetorical question, but I think there are two aspects to it.

First, is that tech under capitalism but more specificially under * bros (tech, finance, etc) has become so utterly bureaucratized and middle-manned and anti-worker and wealth-transfer-y and generally just SHIT that a huge portion of everyday work is just shoveling shit around.

Second, is that the * bros square-peg-round-holed LLMs into a thing that "just works" and "saves time" when it really just changes the mode and appearance of the shit shoveling, and actually creates enough of its own shit to more than compensate for the amount of shit it's automatically shovelling (assuming that shit is even shoveled kind of OK in the first place).

Since that extra shit is not immediately visible to many people and will only be found months or years down the line, it's seen as an incredible timesaver.

And this of course discounts all of the ethical/environmental and cognitive decline issues with it.

So they literally created the problem, created a new problem to solve the old problem that results in an even bigger problem, and then with their vast wealth have been continually and perpetually trying to sell the new problem as a solution.

It's ponzi schemes, all the way down.
