Meme: AI complaints went from 'can't even add numbers' to 'generating disputed physics papers'
bengoertzel · x · 2026-10-28
A viral meme contrasts AI complaints across two years: in 2024 the jab was "AI coding can't even add 2+2," while by 2026 the gripe is "AI is generating long theoretical physics papers based on disputed theories." Resharer darronj notes the complaints keep moving while capabilities keep catching up — criticism has shifted from "it can't do it" to "it does too much and needs verification." Ben Goertzel amplified the thread.
