There’s a particular kind of influencer who follows the archetype I call “perpetual bull”. They are highly cynical and show an immense confidence in their own predictions despite not being in the thick of it. And usually it follows the same format: the ideology is that the elites are stupid and completely irrational, evil as well as extremely powerful (they can’t see the contradiction in this). So they attempt to “balance the narrative” by showing the other side. In the past year or so I heard multiple things about A.I.: I was kept being told that the AI bubble will crash any time soon. Still didn’t happen. I was told ChatGPT is not here to stay. It’s one of the most downloaded apps in the world. I was told that Elon firing 80% of staff will cause twitter to crash. It didn’t. It’s running perfectly fine. The modus operandi seems to be that you may just be cynical about everything because civilisationally important discoveries happen only once a while
