He is a bit more of a PR person rage-farming disguised as a futurist. He's not optimizing for correct predictions. That's really hard and not his incentive.

Look at his incentives. It makes more sense.

There's a demand for loud and confident "AI tech will fail" and "big tech will fail", so it pays to peddle the goods.

A lot of people desperately want AI to be a nothingburger. Thus, they will seek a second opinion that just so happens to line up with their existing one. Wishful thinking at its finest.

There are an even larger amount of people who have gotten tired of the NFT levels of pushiness AI has become from a financial perspective. It's become worse than crypto bros at this point.

Sometimes the thing being pushed as "the next big thing" is, in fact, the next big thing. Regardless of how annoying you find the push to be.

Push is fine, to the detriment of society and farcical levels of current usage is a bit of a problem.

I’m going to be so happy once these morons ipo. No point in running the ai spam accounts at that point.
