AI is becoming the new scapegoat for all errors or just things that people don't like. See some art that has an element you don't like? AI. See some typos in an article? AI. Application errors? AI. I hate to break it to you guys, but humans are also capable of errors.

No? Do I believe that a lot of people will race to the bottom and use it for ill or just use it poorly? Yes. But I get value out of this technology daily for legitimate research tasks. It's easy to blame a tool for people misbehaving. Let's make sure the accountability stays with the people.

This idea isn't new. Video game streamer "Kwebbelkop" attempted to use AI to automate his Youtube video hosting in 2024, with very negative audience reactions. I don't imagine Bartlett's efforts will be any more successful, even if his tech stack is better.

I've visited this island as a tourist twice. It'd be too bad to lose it as a cool historical destination. But from a far more frightening angle, I just can't imagine that any level of renovation could bring Alcatraz up to acceptable modern standards.
