@MushroomIt's not so much GIGO (Garbage In, Garbage Out) as it is providing precisely what you're seeking. Thus, if you're looking for something to be suspicious about, it'll tell you to go out and destroy it. So it's insecure humans, searching for meaning from an automated, berserker AI. How could that ever be expected to turn out well?
You don't feed psychoses, you deal with them, relieving the pressure. If a psychologist did that, they'd be sitting on death row now. Yet if you wrote about it, not a single reader would buy/accept it.
Now, everyone is blaming 'weak souls', who are too insecure to withstand terrible suggestions, yet now there seems to be more and more people seeking just that.
Me, I like real villains and anti-heroes, who have their own specific agendas. A land where everyone blinding follows their phones every suggestion is just, utterly ridiculous. For crazy AI, I still prefer 2001, as then the insane AI was logical and made straightforward decisions.
Then again, talk about a perfect villain for our age, this is definitely it. Weak citizen who don't trust anyone, leaders who don't care about anyone but themselves, and no one leading, everyone taking whatever they can walk off with. In a way, we all deserve what we're getting. It's an ironic global tragedy at this point.
