The opposite also annoys me, where slop slurpers try to drop arguments like “well the ghosts in pac man actually used AI!” as if it were some kind of huge gotcha

Like nice try but no, the slop coming from the unzipped pants of these tech bros is in fact not the same as “computers in general”. Although to be honest I think everything after oil lamps has basically been “magic” to a huge chunk of the population so I understand why their scummy marketing is so effective
