Ran into this, it's just unbelievably sad.
"I never properly grieved until this point" - yeah buddy, it seems like you never started. Everybody grieves in their own way, but this doesn't seem healthy.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Remember Steven Spielberg's AI from like 2000 ? same weird story, and I thought it was ridiculous at the time.
When I was a kid I thought the people crushing the robots were kind of cool but then when I got older I realized they were actually being cruel and evil.
But now they're cool again.
The semi-ironic part is that AI wasn't even Spielberg's movie. It was Stanley Kubrick's, but he died before making it and since him and Spielberg were great friends, Spielberg decided ro make Kubrick's last film in his honor. Must have been a difficult movie to make, both technically, but also emotionally.
