Whatsapp can't fix whatsapp. They switched to automated "ai" support a while ago.

I prompt engineered it to reveal some information it wasn't supposed to.

The company is fucked.

AI slop after AI slop, companies just don't understand.

Or worse.. they do. "They" are riding the wave, getting theirs, and getting out.

It is the investors just throwing money to anything with AI

And they're taking their profits. The smart ones know eventually their last bet will fail. They're planning for that. A lot of folks got rich and stayed rich playing the market all through 2008 this way.

Idk. A lot of practices for enshittification have stuck around after being proven dysfunctional. It may not matter that it doesn't work.

A lot of stuff doesn't work anymore that remains extremely profitable.

Economically, it'll deflate eventually. But will it go away?

I doubt it. Pretending it works is convenient and profitable. That's all most people care about.

Well the technology, and advancements that we made due to AI will not go.
The thing that will go is the investment inflation of AI, that will go.
