This is unreal. This is unprecedented. This violent explosion of growth absolutely broke the Internet, but also broke the expectations of the people that fund it. The AI bubble was born.
I've been an IRC user for a very long time, over half my life now. One of the things that IRC users are known to do is set up a chatbot that listens to everything that's being said and uses it to construct [Markov chains](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain), which are a way to get a probabilistic average of what is being said. There's nothing really magic about Markov chains, except sometimes the bot would absolutely roast someone in a way that was so perfect that it felt like the bot was a person. Then the bot started making ungrammatical nonsense and the illusion was instantly shattered and everyone went along their day like nothing happened.
