AI Developers are Realizing that AI “Agents” Cannot Replace Humans – AI “Not Comparable to Humans or even Animals”

Andrej Karpathy, one of the founding members of OpenAI along with Sam Altman, made a lot of waves in the AI Tech world this past weekend, when he stated that the idea of AI replacing humans as being "right around the corner" was not true, and that industry leaders were over-hyping it for financial gain. He stated that AI code cannot learn or reason like humans, or even animals. A lot of Karpathy’s criticisms of his own field seem to boil down to a single point: As much as we like to anthropomorphize large language models, they’re not comparable to humans or even animals in the way they learn. For instance, zebras are up and walking around just a few minutes after they’re born, suggesting that they’re born with some level of innate intelligence, while LLMs have to go through immense trial and error to learn any new skill, Karpathy points out. While this news shocked the AI world this week, it is all pretty basic stuff I have been writing about and saying for about 2.5 years now. AI can NOT replace humans, but the new Large Language Models (LLM) AI that started with OpenAI and Microsoft at the end of 2022, does have some value as a tool to assist humans and make their work easier and quicker. Once the AI bubble bursts, the real-world applications and usefulness of this AI will remain, but will our economy survive the correction in the market that is coming?

The Post-Technological Age is Drawing Closer as Gen Z Starts Unplugging

I have been writing since the fourth quarter of 2022 that digital technology, which began in the early 1980s with the introduction of "personal computers", has reached its peak, and would eventually begin to decline into what I called a "Post-Technological Age." This doesn't mean that the technology will go away, just that we will finally realize that there are limits to electronic technology, which will collapse our economy due to our overspending and overuse of it. Eventually people will figure out that most of the modern claims for the technology, and especially transhumanism, are just lies fed to the public to keep the money flowing. And in early 2023, many of the Big Tech banks, like Silicon Valley Bank, did fail. But the entire system has not collapsed yet, because of the massive amounts of cash they have held, much of it pumped into the economy during Trump's first term during COVID, and the Cares Act. But with the recent investments into data centers which are so vast that many projects are now actually being funded by debt, the day the whole system collapses is drawing closer. However, there is now another threat to Big Tech's vision for the future, and that threat is coming from the younger generations, the Millennials and the Gen Z generations, who are now starting to abandon the technology in increasing numbers, to find true value in life. As I have been writing for years, Big Tech can NOT control you if you don't use their products. Investors on Wall Street are starting to wake up to this fact regarding the younger generations, especially Gen Z, regarding new movements to "unplug."

The Myth that Robots are Replacing Humans in the Workplace is Becoming More Widely Understood

The Information is one of the few sources in Tech who is willing to admit that AI and robots are over-hyped. And Nvidia is not the only one to use “a puppeteer behind the scenes”, as The Information reported, to guide a robot in public. Elon Musk does it all the time at Tesla events. If Tesla had a fully functioning human-like robot in production, you can be sure one would be following Musk around everywhere he goes for advertisement. That Tesla's dancing robots are all fake and controlled behind the scenes by humans, is well known by many in the Tech field. AI is NOT replacing American jobs. "Ghost" workers behind the scenes in places like India earning pennies on the dollar compared to what Americans make, are the ones replacing American jobs, at least in the Tech sector. And this has already been going on for quite a while, long before the current AI frenzy that started in 2023. A recently published report out of MIT has concluded: "95 percent of organizations are getting ZERO return from their investments in Generative AI."

The Idols are no longer Mute – They Talk Back through AI and Tell us What we Want to Hear

When the apostle Paul wrote his first letter to the believers in the Greek city of Corinth, which is contained in the New Testament portion of the Bible, he was dealing with divisions and factions among the believers in that city, and their "hero worship" of certain leaders during that time. In the 12th chapter of his letter he wrote: "You know that when you were pagans, somehow or other you were influenced and led astray to mute idols." (1 Corinthians 12:2) These "idols" were often images made out of gold, such as the "Golden Calf" story in the Book of Exodus, when the Hebrews created an idol out of gold that resembled a cow, and then "worshiped" it by apparently partying, in what was probably one huge orgy. So when Paul penned the words "mute idols" to the believers living in the city of Corinth, they knew exactly what he was talking about. Fast forward to today, and the idols are no longer mute! They are powered by electricity, and LLM (Large Language Models) AI software can even give them a voice now. Of course these new AI idols are no smarter than the mute ones, because the idol is not the one actually talking. Just as when they were mute, they have no consciousness and cannot reason or think like a human being can. Separate them from their power source (pull the plug!), and they cease to talk or even exist. Charles Hugh Smith published an excellent article yesterday showing how LLM AI is "a mirror in which we see our own reflection."

News about the Impending Market Crash over the AI Bubble is now Going Mainstream

I have published dozens of articles since the beginning of 2023 when the AI frenzy started, showing that it was poised to be the biggest market bubble of all time. While there were a few dissenters back then, now more people are waking up, and many financial analysts are now sounding the alarm. Of course the bubble should have exploded in 2023 when the top Big Tech banks failed, because these rich Tech billionaires held accounts at banks like Silicon Valley Bank that well exceeded the FDIC insurance levels of only $250,000 per account. There were bank runs back then, and many people could not get access to their funds and total panic ensued. But Big Tech billionaire voices, such as Mark Cuban, who stood to lose hundreds of millions, convinced the U.S. Government to basically bail these banks out, covering ALL accounts above $250,000, and Big Tech billionaires suffered no loses. But how much longer can this bubble last? I have had readers email me and complain that I have been saying this for over 2 years now, but there is no way I can predict when this will happen as there are still $billions, if not $trillions of dollars being spent by Big Tech that is holding this market up. It won't last, and the longer it takes for this bubble to burst, the worse the crash will be. It will be truly devastating.

America’s Reliance on Technology will Soon Crash the World Economy as AI’s Failures and Limitations Increase

I have been reporting on the upcoming collapse of the U.S. financial system due to the Artificial Intelligence (AI) bubble that started at the end of 2022. "AI", of course, has been around for over 75 years with $billions wasted in investing in science fiction. But when we read about "AI" today, it is mostly about only one form of AI, the Large Language Models (LLMs) that produced ChatGPT and other such applications that were released at the end of 2022. And while some of Silicon Valley's largest banks did collapse in the first quarter of 2023, the entire U.S. economy has not, yet. So while my timing may have been off since 2023, as we head into the last couple of weeks of the first quarter of 2025, more and more people are starting to wake up to the fact that this "new" AI is not delivering on its promises, and as the AI financial bubble continues to grow, it means that the inevitable crash that is to come will be much more devastating as well. I have earned my living from technology for over 25 years now, and keep a close eye on the technology news in my daily news feeds. So here are some recent news articles about the failures of this "new" AI that perhaps you did not see, as most of the Alternative Media continue to feed into this over-blown AI hype by publishing science fiction "news" as fact, and using fear to proclaim that the technology is going to replace humans, or become merged with humans to create "trans-humans". So let's move away from the hype and fear, and see what is actually happening in the real world today with this technology, and just how close we are to a total financial collapse.
