In the gleaming conference rooms of Silicon Valley, where venture capitalists gather like digital evangelists clutching their kombucha and quarterly projections, a curious form of doublethink has taken hold. Artificial Intelligence, they proclaim with the fervor of true believers, is simultaneously the solution to every human problem and a technology so nascent that any criticism of its current limitations constitutes heresy against the future itself.
The Ministry of Technological Truth has spoken: AI will cure cancer, eliminate poverty, solve climate change, and presumably teach your grandmother to use TikTok. Yet somehow, after billions in investment and years of breathless proclamations, the most advanced AI systems still struggle with tasks that a moderately caffeinated human intern could handle—like accurately counting the number of fingers in a photograph or explaining why they recommended a documentary about serial killers after you watched one cooking show.
This is not mere technological growing pains. This is the systematic construction of a narrative so divorced from reality that it would make the Ministry of Plenty proud. The tech industry has perfected the art of selling tomorrow’s promises with today’s marketing budgets, creating a perpetual state of “almost there” that justifies infinite investment in solutions to problems that may not actually exist.
