AI is the new scam after crypto, nft, etc. The technology isn't to blame itself. It can have some useful case for sure.

The real issue is the Market™, the belief in infinite growth. We arrived at the point of no return, where infinite growth is impossible. Humans like to challenge impossible. They will try to find whatever is possible to tackle the impossible. In our case, humans try to create growth artificially with crypto, nft, ai, and all the others. Because, it's the only way to have a minimalist growth for the shareholders and investors. Billions if not trillions were invested in Google and the others AI companies to milk the last drop for some dividend. Short term dividends should have wrote.

These bad search results are not to serve the general interest. It's here to serve these investments and return the last profit possible of the dogma of infinity in a finite world. It does indicate how bad the situation became for the economy. They are the cracks leaking the end of an era. They are symptomatic.

It sounds.... impossible to defeat this darker side of human nature, in order to grow into a mature species worthy of restoring and responsibly maintaining this garden planet.

Capitalist ideology is so hardwired into most of us that it seems easier to accept the end of the world than the end of capitalism itself

End of the world? Sounds like the end of capitalism to me. Where do we sign up?
