I think it’s simpler than that. They believed their own AI PR bullshit, huffed their own farts, and management thought they could get paid more to do less, offloading decisions.
Don’t ascribe to malice that which can be explained by stupidity.
Fuck that shit, stop giving these malignant wraiths the benefit of doubt.
Unless the person/entity has a history of bad behavior, which Facebook does
Malicious and stupid aren’t mutually exclusive, but stupid often leads.
