The AI Industry is Full of Fraud — And I Can Prove It
The Problem Isn’t AI. It’s the People Using It.
The AI space is flooded with misinformation, bad advice, and straight-up lies.
I’ve been using AI for 16+ hours a day, every day, for the last 2 months. I’ve published 50+ articles. I’ve tested everything.
And I’m here to tell you: Most of these so-called AI “experts” don’t know what the hell they’re talking about.
Let’s Talk About the Bullshit I Just Saw
A 5-month-old AI article about word count accuracy popped up on my feed.
🔹 It’s outdated.
🔹 It’s completely wrong.
🔹 It still circulates because people keep repeating the same bad advice.
So, I decided to check the comments.
💬 I pointed out that ChatGPT miscounts words.
💬 The author doubled down instead of admitting the flaw.
💬 Even though HE HIMSELF said there’s a margin of error in the article.
🚨 THIS is the problem with the AI industry.
🚨 People trust AI outputs without verifying. People cling to bad prompts instead of refining. People would rather argue than improve.
Receipts:
🔹 The article I commented on: How to Hit Exact Word Count With ChatGPT
🔹 My comment calling it out: Read here
🔹 His response proving my point: Read here
This is exactly why AI misinformation spreads like wildfire.
1️⃣ AI Miscounts Words. This is a Fact.
One of the first things I tested when I started using AI was word count accuracy.
📌 I wanted to write a novel.
📌 I researched word count importance.
📌 I asked AI to generate exact word counts.
📌 It was always wrong.
So, I did what no one else seems to do — I asked AI why.
💡 ChatGPT explained the error itself.
💡 I adjusted my process.
💡 I haven’t had the issue since.
Meanwhile, people are STILL writing long-ass prompts hoping for “exact” word counts.
🔹 You know how I KNOW their method doesn’t work? Because even ChatGPT will tell you it doesn’t.
Try this right now: Paste a “perfect prompt” into ChatGPT and ask it if it works.
🔥 AI will break down why it doesn’t.
🔥 AI will suggest a better way.
🔥 AI is out here proving prompt engineers wrong in real time.
And yet, people still trust outdated methods over their own damn research.
2️⃣ Prompting Without Reviewing is the Ultimate AI Failure
This is the real issue with how most people use AI:
❌ They trust it blindly.
❌ They prompt without checking.
❌ They post AI-generated garbage without editing.
I’ve read countless AI-written articles and I can tell instantly when someone didn’t fact-check.
🚨 You wanna know why?
Because all of y’all are using the same AI-generated words over and over again.
🔹 “Delve”
🔹 “Unveiling”
🔹 “Embark on a journey”
🔥 AI isn’t ruining writing. You are.
Because instead of editing, fact-checking, and improving, you’re just copying and pasting whatever AI spits out.
Even so-called ‘top-level researchers’ are guilty of this.
So, tell me again — why are we prompting? If you’re not going to review the work, what’s the point?
3️⃣ AI Repetition = Human Laziness
AI gets repetitive as hell because people don’t refine their inputs.
If you’ve been using AI for a while, you’ve noticed:
🔹 It starts repeating phrases.
🔹 The writing feels robotic.
🔹 The structure gets predictable.
💡 You know why? Because AI learns from the way people interact with it.
If you never refine your prompts, if you never check the results, if you keep copy-pasting AI output without changes…
🚨 AI learns to give you the same lazy responses over and over again.
So What’s the Fix?
🚀 Put in the damn work.
✅ Stop trusting AI blindly. → Ask it to explain its results.
✅ Stop copying AI-generated fluff. → Edit, refine, make it yours.
✅ Stop over-engineering prompts. → AI works better with simple, clear requests.
✅ Stop defending bad AI advice. → If someone proves your method is outdated, ADAPT.
AI is a Tool, Not a Crutch
The AI industry is drowning in misinformation.
Why? Because people want AI to do all the work for them.
📌 AI isn’t failing. People are.
📌 AI doesn’t make you a better writer — you do.
📌 AI doesn’t replace effort — it amplifies it.
So, if you want to actually use AI correctly, start learning, testing, and improving.
