'Schrödinger AI' meme mocks anti-AI crowd holding contradictory beliefs
FlorianGallwitz · x · 2026-11-04
WesRoth's post pokes fun at the anti-AI mindset: people who claim AI is overhyped and not truly intelligent while simultaneously believing it's taking jobs and dangerous. He likens this to Schrödinger's cat — two contradictory beliefs can coexist as long as nobody actually checks — coining the term "Schrödinger AI" and summing it up as stupidity plus ignorance. Florian Gallwitz reposted the observation.
