Alt Text: an image of Agent Smith from The Matrix with the following text superimposed, “1999 was described as being the peak of human civilization in ‘The Matrix’ and I laughed because that obviously wouldn’t age well and then the next 25 years happened and I realized that yeah maybe the machines had a point.”
When I heard that line I was like “Yeah, sure. We’ll never have AI in my lifespan” and you know what? I was right.
What I wasn’t expecting was for a bunch of tech bros to create an advanced chatbot and announce “Behold! We have created AI, let’s have it do all of our thinking for us!” while the chatbot spits out buggy code and suggests mixing glue into your pizza sauce.
