“Scientists”, media, politicians, etc… today: I’ve created an artificial intelligence!!!
Actual scientists: The planet is being destroyed.
People: I don’t know who to believe.
Seriously “science” is so full of grifters that I’m not surprised flat-earthism is flourishing.

Yeah there’s a problem with how science is portrayed to the general population. Most science is ”boring”. People want to hear about aliens, time travel and parallel universes.
Graphs showing that we should cut down our meat consumption is boring.
Stories about how a secret world state (possibly extradimensional lizards) is hiding a big ice wall from us is exciting.
