Problem 2. Slothsurf may be a joke product made as a journalism project, but people really do stuff like this and I think they miss out on this fact: Slothsurf is a pre-pivot idea. It's too stupid to have any value in the real world, but if you really try to build it yourself you may, during the process, discover how to build something that is worth building that nobody else has built. Not if you truly view Slothsurf as the target to the extent that you would never pivot, of course. With all AI employees there would be no point to pivoting because you never learned anything or created any kind of expertise or insight that would carry you through a successful pivot. You'd just start over from scratch. Back to square 1. But the good news is that you never really left square one anyway ; )
