AI explanation

The quote 'Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe' is widely and popularly attributed to Albert Einstein, often cited in discussions about human folly versus cosmic scale. Note that many Einstein quotation scholars flag this specific line as unverified/apocryphal — it doesn't appear in his confirmed writings — but by long-standing popular attribution (the convention most trivia questions follow), Einstein is the expected answer over Plato, Benjamin Franklin, or Newton, none of whom are ever linked to this line.
