2. Various "AI"s (none of which use any AI techniques) will be deployed and become integral to the functioning of our society while nobody has any idea what they really measure or how they work. Future service outages as people "lose the recipe" of how to keep the "AI"s happy.

90% of the money in the field will go towards either advertising or state security apparatus concerns. 90% of that will be either outright crap or deliberate fraud (the rest will be Goop, i.e. both).
