"AI will let us turn PhDs from 4 year degrees into 6 month degrees!"
Literally shitting on the part that makes it intellectual development. It requires things like *reading* for yourself and *writing* for yourself. Those aren't chores, they're part of skills acquisition and critical development.

"Joe Biden pulled off perhaps the greatest oil trade of all time and in the process broke OPEC's grip and basically no one knows about it."
Yup. Joe Biden was an amazing President who made this country stronger and its people more secure. And he gets ZERO credit for it. It's infuriating.

When DOGE Unleashed ChatGPT on the Humanities
DOGE used AI to gut funding for the National Endowment for the Humanities.
No oversight, no double-checkingβthey just blindly trusted ChatGPT to take $100 million away from projects across the country. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/07/arts/humanities-endowment-doge-trump.html

AFAICT, it is transformational to managers who 1) havenβt touched code in a decade and 2) werenβt stellar coders in it for the love of it when they were, who 3) believe it will transform & speed lines of code written when 4) thatβs actually not how weβve measured code efficacy for more than a decade
