Right, it’s all about profit maximization within the rules of the system, and it’s much easier to maximize profit doing a scam than building something real. So everything becomes a Potemkin village because that’s how you make money. The AI grift is kind of genius because they managed to tie the narrative to national security now. Since China is developing AI as well, this has become an industry that can’t be allowed to fail. My expectation is what’s gonna happen in the end is that we’ll see the bubble pop, and then Anthropic and OpenAI are just going to get bailouts and then live off government contracts similarly to the military industry.
