   Fake news to pump up their share price. You can't trust any news about A.I. these days, especially near their IPOs.

   This A.I. hype makes the Internet Bubble look like a walk in the park.

      Why is it fake news, and how do you know that?

         They're publishing press releases about "novel discoveries" done with their A.I. all the time. When you look closely it's very minor stuff.

         Like that story about their A.I. "escaping" its sandbox and hacking other companies. Purely to instill the idea that it's intelligent and has a will of its own.

         It wouldn't even surprise me if behind every prompt you type some Indian in a sweatshop is typing the response.
