AI is the idea of putting a million monkeys in a room with a typewriter and waiting for Shakespeare.

The smart people already knew the monkeys would just starve to death. The business majors are just now figuring that out.

The ten thousandth monkey typed out the word "the" , fund them everything they'll type out Shakespeare!

Dude, the math says it would be cheaper to fund research into necromancy to revive the actual Shakespeare than this.
