So, I see the point the author makes but something of his style is really offputting, maybe its my weak grasp on a foreign language

> The AI hoax is the new COVID hoax.

Does the guy imply that he does not believe in a pandemic?

His words about wikipedia and enforced thinking strike me as very absolute, as far as I know, depending on language, the wikipedia editors and admins sometimes have peculiar style choices and stright-ish guidelines, buts its a far cry from idological enforcement.

On the other hand, his point about all the LLMs basically having taken a snapshot of 2023-ish Internet think and soldifying it seems somewhat valid. I remember some reports about a hiring AI-based help that prefered non-colored non-woman humans because that is where the history had its bias.

And as the author I feel kinda sad when I see an AGENT.md or CLAUDE.md in a repo..but reality is rarely that black&white.
