P(doom) is like cocaine: mocking AI doomerism as a self-reinforcing social bubble
charles_irl · x · 2026-09-14
charlesirl satirized AI doomer culture with a folk-style verse, quoting erikdunteman's take that P(doom) is like cocaine: invisible in daily life, yet the moment one person at a gathering brings it up, you realize the crowd self-selects and reinforces the narrative that "everyone" is afraid. The post frames doom narratives as a self-contained social bubble rather than a shared reality.
