    That’s some wildly disingenuous goal post moving when describing what was meant to be The Future of Finance™ at the time.

    Like saying yeh, AGI was a pipedream and there’s no disruption of technical professions to be seen anywhere, but you can’t deny LLMs made it way easier for bad actors to actively fuck with elections, and the people posting autogenerated youtube slop 5.000 times a day sure did make some legitimate ad money.

      check their recent post history. it’s all old school, Ayn Rand, bro you don’t even watch Bullshit?, internet libertarian takes and it’s fucking delicious, like eating a Big Mac straight from the time capsule where someone buried it

        there’s some kind of new reality / competition show in this. I’m thinking mixture “you can’t eat that many burgers!” challenge shit, preservation/archivist commentators, and organic chemists and good dieticians as adjudicators
