AI agent video meme

1. LOL! So funny - and a perfect illustration of how much extra work AI agents often create for people.

From a newsletter Ed Zitron wrote recently - https://www.wheresyoured.at/ai-doesnt-have-roi/ - that I posted about here:

I don’t give a shit if you use them to spit out a script or do some simple sideline part of your job, or transcribe or dictate into them, or if you’ve used them as a search engine (and even then, you best check every source!), but the moment you rely on and run your entire process on these things, I immediately doubt your ability to do anything, or at the very least wonder how gullible you truly are when somebody ingratiates you enough.

Why? Because every single “AI setup” I’ve seen anyone ever use involves a rube goldberg machine of bullshit deterministic scripts to try and bring the hallucination-guaranteed nature of LLMs to heel, usually to the point that you’re doing more work making the LLM work than you did before they existed, and you’re only proud of it because you feel like you’re special.

I've read about so many examples of this online, especially on Reddit's r/ClaudeAI.
