You mean the multi-billion dollar, souped-up autocorrect might not actually be able to replace the human workforce? I am shocked, shocked I say!
Do you think Sam Altman might have… gasp lied to his investors about its capabilities?
Nooooo. I mean, we have about 80 years of history into AI research and the field is just full of overhyped promised that this particularly tech is the holy grail of AI to end in disappointment each time, but this time will be different! /s
The article doesn't mention OpenAI, GPT, or Altman.
Yeah, OpenAI, ChatGPT, and Sam Altman have no relevance to ~~AI~~ LLMs. No idea what I was thinking.
I prefer Claude, usually, but the article also does not mention LLMs. I use generative audio, image generation, and video generation at work as often if not more than text generators.
Good point, but LLMs are both ubiquitous and the public face of “AI.” I think it’s fair to assign them a decent share of the blame for overpromising and underdelivering.
Aha, so this must all be Elon's fault! And Microsoft!
There are lots of whipping boys these days that one can leap to criticize and get free upvotes.
Versus those paid ones.
If someone wants to pay me to upvote them I'm open to negotiation.
I traded in my upvotes when I deleted my reddit account, and all I got was this stupid chip on my shoulder.
