It seems that all of this AI is turning into nothing more than a Magic 8-Ball. The only real difference is that a Magic 8-Ball doesn't cost billions and trillions. After consulting my Ouija Board it suggested that we bring back the Magic 8-Ball for all of our important government decisions. /s

Fun fact: you can ask an LLM to respond to questions like a magic 8-ball. Works great. Please use responsibly.
