That people don't do this, makes me think that it is more posturing and venting than an actual belief. People are uncertain about what will happen, but are angry and feel a lack of agency, and perhaps some FOMO as well. This becomes reflexive denialism.

I get the anger. These people are gambling with my (and all the other plebs) life and are likely going to get rich in the process.
I think AI is huge and it’s going to make a lot of money. So I’m keeping my investments in. But I’m also sure there is going to be a massive amount of turbulence to get there. Unfortunately I don’t know enough (or care to know enough) about finance to really capitalize on it.

Is this comment satire? Do you just sit in that weird ass Apple donut building, drifting further and further out of touch with real humans? Or do you leave it some times and interact with your average citizen now and then?
