Silicon Valley elites fuel anti-intellectual AI slop

Silicon Valley’s push for AI automation reflects a fundamental hostility toward human reasoning, which tech leaders like Andreessen and Thiel view as a cognitive strain to be solved by LLMs. This ideological shift, often masked by a "self-made" myth, risks creating a feedback loop of low-quality "slop" while aligning with neoreactionary goals of replacing democratic systems with corporate-run feudalism.
