AI's biggest critic has lost the plot - By Kelsey Piper

from AI Article Readings · host Askwho Casts AI

In this post, Kelsey Piper argues that one of AI’s most prominent critics is making a weaker case than he used to: as AI tools have improved, adoption has grown, and costs have fallen, the serious skeptical argument has shifted from “AI has no value” to harder questions about profitability, capital expenditure, and whether current revenue can justify the build-out. It’s a sharp but spoiler-free critique of bad AI skepticism, and a call for better, more precise scrutiny of an industry that still badly needs it.* 00:00 - Introduction* 07:27 - Maybe everything is a lie?* 14:54 - We’re not headed for March 2000https://open.substack.com/pub/theargument/p/ais-biggest-critic-has-lost-the-plot?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web Get full access to Askwho Casts AI at askwhocastsai.substack.com/subscribe
