Every sales pitch for A.I. is: "You know the spark that challenges you and makes you grow as a person? Yeah, fuck that, stop thinking."

It's NFTs. It's the Metaverse. Technology in search of a need. Snake. Oil.
"Imagine a world in which an A.I. can analyze your reading patterns and alert you that you’re about to buy a book where there’s only a 10 percent chance you’ll get past Page 6..."

Fuck off. That's not empowerment, that's outsourcing your soul. That's outsouling.
