Have you tried any of the agentic AIs?
So your reliable source can't keep a secret.
So it's not just a dictionary attack. It's that plus modifying the word before using it.
The pace of change ("practically obsolete") is different then and now.
Maybe there is someone out there positive on AI itself and calling out reasonable objections to some of the extreme things. But that's not Zitron.
Zitron is never right but he exists so that media can claim to be balanced.

Sites like Quora don't have good moderation (nor social media sites) and they become less useful for "how do I do X" questions.
LLMs do the moderation of the underlying source and just give you the answer.
And the majority of the questions on page 1 have negative votes.
Politician A will promise "no VAT on bread" to get elected. The next guy will promise "no VAT on essentials". The next guy will promise "no UBI for the rich". And so on.
And you end up with the next politician dismantling the whole system as unfair.
Seems unofficial. Actually, the domain name is probably a trademark violation.
And this same principle allows them to build massive friend/connection networks of everyone electronically. The government knows every single person you've communicated with and how often you communicate with them.
It was never designed for this originally.
Sure, AI is exciting, and it reignites a passion. But everything you learn today will be obsolete a year from now. And that might tire you out again.
