In an absurdist fantasy novel the wizard would be named Cramer. He's the highest ranking member of the court not of royal blood. His pronouncements are always deeply considered by the powerful. But all the common people know that you always should do the opposite of what he says.

He's the financial world's Wimp Lo. He was trained wrong, as a joke.

In a cyberpunk novel, the wizard would be an LLM that is somehow guaranteed to always give you an incorrect but believable answer to any question

no sometimes the LLM hallucinations match reality

Although sometimes this is the same as liberalism accidentally coming to the right conclusion for the wrong reasons

Trump yells at an aide "Put in Trump wins in Iran by September in bullet points and print it out." The aide does so. Trump grabs the paper and after about 15 seconds he says "Knew it. I-knew-it I-knew-it I-knew-it. Almost as smart as me. So - very, very smart. I'm gonna replace everybody - the joint chiefs - everybody with AI. Don't need them." Nobody says anything because they can't judge Trump's tone. And when the Great Man is talking - you better not laugh at the wrong thing or at the wrong time.

He seems serious (maybe?) when he says "The first thing I'm gonna do is—" But he interrupts himself. "Me-me-me-me-me-me-me. I'm on Fox. Fix it." He means that for his ginormous tv - he wants the audio unmuted, multiple channels to go away, and make it all Fox. Trump watches Trump. Trump is all smiles and starts to give his aides play-by-play as if he's watching a recording of himself as the quarterback who won the Super Bowl basically all by himself.

a-little-trolling MAKE ANALOG GAMES AGAIN! America used to Tabletop and now they don't. Nintendo has done terrible things to you, outsourcing our gamers to the digital. SAD! That is why I am bringing back dice and cards by raising tariffs on all the digital. Great cards and dice, the BEST! A set for every American!
