Shownotes

Description: The ultimate tech hypocrisy exposed - developers who preach open source gospel while building careers on black-box AI models they couldn't explain with a gun to their head. Silicon Valley's most self-righteous are suckling at the teat of proprietary algorithms while demanding everyone else's code be free.

Spice Index: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Now they've found their golden ticket - pretending to understand black-box systems while charging consultant rates that would make a therapist in Beverly Hills blush. Principles are great until they interfere with your Tesla payments!
