I regularly think and post conspiracy theory thoughts about why the "AI" is such a hype. And in line with them a certain kind of people seem to think that reality doesn't matter, because those who control the present control the past and the future. That is, they think that controlling the discourse can replace controlling the reality. The issue with that is that whether a bomb is set, whether a boat is sea-worthy, whether a bridge will fall is not defined by discourse.
