      By feeding people’s collective cynicism, lack of social skills, general paranoia, lack of trust in each other, waning hope for the future, etc.

              Does anyone else think that the old refrain of letting nerds run the world was actually incredibly misguided because nearly all of them lack the social skills necessary to not be sociopaths?

                As a nerd who slowly grasped social skills over decades, while most of my cohort did not - yes, hard agree. Case in point - the AI-zealot posting all over this thread.
