Tech bros are insufferable the idea that this made it into the execution phase as a business plan is bonkers.
The people in tech have been revealed to lack all humanity and should be widely reviled
Maybe it’s being sheltered in front of a computer for decades while already having began life with poor social skills and thus never developing a connection to humanity
Maybe it just attracts vile human scum like the church
It is the age old hubris of thinking everything works the way things work that you are an expert about work, dialed up to 11. In otherwords, AI obsessed techbro culture differs meaningfully from a strongly gender-policed organized religion only in the comparative youth of its dogma.
I also believe the sense of narrative control computers give is very unhealthy for a lot of low emotional intelligence people as it is an illusion, not everything is factorio, not everything needs to grow and extinguish at the greatest scale possible, and not everything can be “growth hacked” or automated into a perfectly categorized flowchart algorithm. If it could, fascism would have already won long ago.
Computer people all too often lean into the blindspot that you don’t have to listen when using a computer like you do when having a real conversation with a human and it diminishes their humanity.
I love computers, but for a certain category of people they can be quite intellectually dangerous.
