Frontier tech companies build algorithmic science experiments, release them to the public as real products that replace applications and people, which we find are not actually applications or effective trustworthy workers, then ask customers and consumers to build the applications tech firms used to create and sell, and now they want us to foot the bill on the infrastructure to let us use the dumb experiment. Tens of thousands of workers that used to transition tech R&D into real products are laid off. And politicians are bribed with billions of dollars to create or block legislation that would make tech firms responsible for and take the burden on of actually delivering a real solution to meet their hype. So what happens when people can’t make a living and recycle money back into a consumer oriented economy? A Great Depression. I guess the tech bros create their new society on the moon and Mars with the money they raided from the government coffers. What a $&!7 show.
