Even entire governments are captured by a mild LLM psychosis. Which is sad in the case of Norway. I lived in Norway for two years and always found their government to be highly rational, this is not a rational use of public funds (but I suppose they have plenty of capital).

Western society is completely captured by this form of psychosis and its going to bite us in the a* very soon.

I firmly believe all the Boomer leaders throughout the world are being sold a bag of lies by technocrats that "AI", specifically LLMs, are going to cure disease and death and therefor they are willing to handover all control to the technocrats. Fckin croakers at it again.

I think it is highly rational. You see it from the wrong point of view. It seems to be less a short utilitarian project or economic endeavour, but a cultural one. Think about it more of in terms of applied humanities. Which languages go extinct, which cultures disappear and are superseded by a monocultural globalist hegemony.
