ChatGPT is changing the way we ask stupid questions

Vaguely formed hypothesis: the crypto ‘correction’ and the maturing of agentic AI are connected. At least part of the crypto thing was under-engaged tech people looking for something to do with their time. Now they’ve got Moltbook to play with, crypto has gone back in the toy box.

For all of you worrying that AI will outsmart us, here is some comfort (probably short lived though).

I don’t know how to describe this - a map of Australia with a random mix of states mapped out. They are in the wrong place with the wrong boundaries and a few random US states thrown in. WA has obviously paid some protection money to get the exactly correct spelling and location on the map …
