Yup. They’re basically just wallets that burn slightly less money than they make and it’s all randomized because they have no real skill to direct any of it.

And then they take home millions while the people they paid make rapidly less and less money the further down the chain you go. AI is just their way to make sure they don’t even need to really pay anyone else at all and to be able to convince people that they had an idea for the first time ever.
