The AI astroturfing campaign.

If you had billions to gain, would you invest a few 100k or millions in an astroturfing campaign?

every other day antrophic comes up with a new "AI is scary" marketing campaign. Like https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cpqeng9d20go (AI blackmails our employee episode) or https://time.com/7335746/ai-anthropic-claude-hack-evil/ (Our model turned evil and hacked us omgg)

They put these stories out just to make the general public (who might not understand that this is just bs) but makes AI seem scary so people get a lopsided view of AI and capacities that are straight out of science fiction.

Millions is an understatement on how much AI marketing spend is

You definitely want to be standing in front of a chair when the music stops.

A revolution means radical changes executed over a short period of time. Well with 4 years in, this has got to be one of the smallest "revolutions" we have ever witnessed in human history. Maybe it's revolutionary for people who get excited about crappy pictures they can insert into their slides to impress the management.
