Can't wait for the AI bubble to burst.
Already starting to happen a bit.
The AI only fools us into thinking it's intelligent because it picks the most likely text response based on what it's read before. But often, the output is confidently wrong as it's really just a parlor trick.
Now, since it's starting to ingest more if it's own output, the definition of 'what is the most likely response' has been poisoned a little from ingesting that formerly wrong response.
Add in all the blog spam, the fake but funny reddit answers etc, and the system - which doesn't actually think - starts to get more and more deranged.
The way that people use and trust these chat bots reminds me of stories about executives in the '80s climbing the corporate ladder using a Magic 8 Ball
I feel like Elon still uses a magic 8 ball to make decisions.
that's basically what many humans do
i think AI still has really cool applications, it's just that the vibe is getting destroyed by shitty companies putting it in everything, ~~harvesting~~ stealing data for it, the awful spam, and the built in restraints which make it act like you're a child
I don't think it will, at least not to the extent that some past tech trends like blockchain did. Right now companies are still in the "throw AI at everything and see what works" phase, which will definitely pass. But even if AI never improves from this point I still suspect it will find a permanent place being used for generating spam and porn.

The earth's atmosphere will burst from an abundance of CO2 first from all these dumbass LLMs
It's not gonna burst, at least not the way I think you mean. Expectations will eventually come down to earth but everybody will still keep scraping human-produced content and train LLMs on it and generate stuff with it. That genie is out of the bottle and it's here to stay.
As long as they stop trying to treat it like a hammer and literally everything else like a nail, I'll take it. It's nfts all over again.
This looks like record losses in customers because all your knowledgebase articles and CS chats are useless
No Hole Unfilled!!
"Any hole's a goal" is a relationship goal, not a social one!
