P310
Artificial intelligence is a scam and will not get any better - ChatGPT and similar systems will not significantly improve.

What Jiang said

“Is it any good? No, it's not. Will it get any better? No, it won't, okay? So, but there's so much hype around it. I don't have time to go into artificial intelligence, but if you want to know more about artificial intelligence and why it's a scam, I can do so later on.”

Analysis

Jiang argues AI hype is misplaced and that current systems like ChatGPT are not actually good and will not improve, calling it essentially a deliberate scam.
