Because the dumdums have access to the whole world at the tip of the fingertip without having to put any efforts in.

In a time without that, they would be ridiculed for their stupid ideas and told to pipe down.

Now they can find like minded people and amplify their stupidity, and be loud about it.

So every dumdum becomes an AI prompt engineer (whatever the fuck that means) and know how to game the LLM, but do not understand how it works. So they are basically just snake oil salesmen that want to get on the gravy train.
