    Do you think AI is supposed to be useful?!

    Its sole purpose is to generate wealth so that stock prices can go up next quarter.

      Doesn’t even need to generate actual wealth, as speculation about future wealth is enough for the market.

      I WANT to believe:

      People are threatening lawsuits for every little thing that AI does, whittling it down to uselessness, until it dies and goes away along with all of its energy consumption.

      REALITY:

      Everyone is suing everything possible because $$$, whittling AI down to uselessness, until it sits in the corner providing nothing at all, while stealing and selling all the data it can, and consuming ever more power.
