Companies everywhere are forcing AI down the throats of consumers and workers. The tech sector has reached peak absurdity: a billionaire who has never worked a 9-to-5 went from predicting civilization collapse to claiming ChatGPT is essential for raising children; a chipmaker proclaims that virtual AI agents will replace teachers, nurses, and doctors; and Google’s CEO declares AI an even more profound discovery than fire or electricity. The greatest innovations of the last century—from the microprocessor to the PC—all flourished through organic market demand, without fear-mongering or institutional gaslighting. People didn’t adopt Wi-Fi, smartphones, or GPS under threat of extinction; they adopted them because they worked. Inventors never posed as doomsday prophets. Supply trailed demand, products evolved through iteration, and mass-market impact was earned—not declared.
