it's like how techbros constantly want to reinvent transportation, if they assign an AI to give them an answer it would just say "build more railways and trains" and they'd throw it out a window in anger

They re-invent everything for no reason. Every mundane device has been "re-invented" using big data, blockchain, VR, now AI and in a few years probably quantum-something.

The entire tech world fundamentally ran out of ideas. The usual pipeline is basic research > applied research > products, but since money only gets thrown at products, there's nothing left to do research. So the tech bros have to re-iterate on the same concepts again and again.
