    There are many clear use cases that are solid, so AI is here to stay, that’s for certain. But how far can it go, and what will it require is what the market is gambling on.

    I would disagree on that. There are a few niche uses, but OpenAI can’t even make a profit charging $200/month.

    The uses seem pretty minimal as far as I’ve seen. Sure, AI has a lot of applications in terms of data processing, but the big generic LLMs propping up companies like OpenAI? Those seems to have no utility beyond slop generation.

    Ultimately the market value of any work produced by a generic LLM is going to be zero.

      It’s difficult to take your comment serious when it’s clear that all you’re saying seems to based on ideological reasons rather than real ones.

      Besides that, a lot of the value is derived from the market trying to figure out if/what company will develop AGI. Whatever company manages to achieve it will easily become the most valuable company in the world, so people fomo into any AI company that seems promising.

        There is zero reason to think the current slop generating technoparrots will ever lead into AGI. That premise is entirely made up to fuel the current “AI” bubble

      Language learning, code generatiom, brainstorming, summarizing. AI has a lot of uses. You’re just either not paying attention or are biased against it.

      It’s not perfect, but it’s also a very new technology that’s constantly improving.
