This theory explains why so many of us think we are experts, but actually, we are not. I often hear from someone that they are sure a factoid is true because they, "...read it in an article somewhere". Or they " ...read it on the internet somewhere."
But if you are an actual expert, i.e. you trained and worked in this area all your life, and you read an article or a web blog in your area of expertise, how often is the article correct?
Almost never!
So why then do we trust that journalists, who that can't get our own subject correct, are experts in everything else? Well, here is a news flash, they are not. Most articles and web blogs are horribly wrong, lacking critical information, taken out of context, deliberately pushing a false narrative and the motive is either ignorance (most likely) or malicious.
This has a name, called the Gell-Mann effect, or Gell-Mann Amnesia, which is how we experts conveniently 'forget' how wrong journalists are about things we know about, when we are reading things we ourselves don't know about.

Also to back this up is a good article from Glen Greenwald about how our capacity to reason diminishes during the highly charged climate surrounding a war and war propaganda from BOTH sides.

You would have to be living under a rock to not have heard about AI. Artificial Intelligence, either the great savior of human kind, or the precursor to Sky-net that will destroy us all. Which is it?
First of all, this post was NOT written by AI. So apologies for any mistakes. There is a confusion in terms I believe, as most of the AI's people are thinking of (ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini, etc.) are really LLM or Large Language Models. These are not really "intelligent" but just using mathematics to predict what words are needed to complete the question. Which is why people say AI "lies" too much. Not really, its just predicting words that complete the query and has no concept of what even lying really is.
So is it a bubble? Is it the next industrial revolution? This is the question of the day, and to help answer it, let me point to a few videos that have just been released that give relevant information:

Michael Saylor shared something recently that may have gone unnoticed by most.... he said it in an interview with Tom Bilyeu recently.... here is the clip:

MICHAEL SAYLOR: The first nation to print their own currency to buy Bitcoin wins.
Paul from invest answers then also put together the fact that MSTR is applying to issue more stock to buy more BTC.... is that the same thing? Basically, people will be using fiat to buy stock that will be used to purchase BTC. But the BTC supply is limited.... so get your MSTR (or your BTC) soon! (NOT financial advice....)
But this is not what Satoshi's original 2008 whitepaper (https://bitcoin.org/en/bitcoin-paper) had in mind when it developed Bitcoin, it was suppose to be a peer to peer cashless transaction system, right?
Roger Ver thinks so, and wrote a book about it called Hijacking Bitcoin. This video is a summary of that book ...
