Nvidia "Thor" train of thought

So Intel and AMD flail in the Pit of despair (I've heard)
because they didn't build an AI golden-cow.
Apple apparently rose above all this; the press canonizes them as the best ever.
But some thoughts are just thoughts...if you don't own stock, if you hang around Best-Buy in the withering heat /freezing rain, life is pointless and you're a tool (of the stockholding overlords)
This needs editing ("overlords?")

This train could go, oh, so many ways.

We're the AI

Imagine a back-seat driver for your life, "It's time for your pill"

"Don't you think it needs a little salt?"
and the ever popular "You spelled that wrong! Here, let me rephrase"

Nag or (disembodied pissant ruler) unpaid caretaker?
Please see "Twilight zone" series, about robot abuse.
O. Let's have an AI debate!! 
"what is truth?" could be the topic

There's a realistic scene in my game.
Some technicians being led by a demanding scientist,

 need to be escorted through extremely dangerous territory.

The "AI" (as it were, so to speak, in a nutshell) makes them real assholes and player wants 

• to shoot them dead
• to leave them there, zombie food
• ignore their taunts (like a good little player), and "win" the quest (one or more usually dies no matter what.)

Asking the pampered little genius college boys to actually help elicits the response that they don't do menial stuff like that.
I haven't read the lore about this quest but I'm guessing, only the demanding scientist is really important, and the stereotypical nerds are superfluous (worm-food.)
Profligate owners of slave-driving AI are an imminent reality.
Snotty representatives will become snotty AI.

A new word: "Profligate" that I heard on a show about profligates and their clothes.

But google has its own trains of thought.
Chocolate teapots (it's an expression made flesh)

and neoliberalism (TLDR: Bazillionaires are your friend; Cars should never drive themselves)

?! &^%$#@!!! AAhhhh!!

In fairness to the article, you need to seriously toke-up and see his analogies.
"Madness of 'neoliberalism"??
Asshole

Wait, so what-the-hell do "Tariffs" want?
Slavery, restrictive trade, profligacy?
I'm talking to an AI
omg

It's a hoary meme, look it up

The "chocolate Teapot" I want, at least today, is a "Zero cool" refrigerator, 

with a single 8oz container of yogurt inside, just like in the movie.

around 17,000 after tax.

It's way too tall, though.
But it looks impressive as hell.

I've been combing google for demanding stars wanting a zero-cool in their dressing room, and then putting a single yogurt into it.
Google keeps coming up with random movies and then denies it.
OK once upon a time, a new star wanted a gigantic refrigerator in her dressing room, for her 8oz's of yogurt. The producer is satisfied the dressing room is to the star's specifications, and then he gets surprised by the behemoth-refrigerator starting up. 

It was a comedy?
Well anyway, if they make short-fat profligate refrigerators, I want one.

This one is around 24,000

And if you want they'll put glass doors, but I don't want.
I'd order blinds and curtains for my glass-door refrigerator.

Pays his fucking taxes and we don't use the taxes to build walls, ballrooms and golf fucking courses,

Let him eat bananas, I say.
