Over half of all tech industry workers view AI as overrated::undefined
Best assessment I’ve heard: Current AI is an aggressive autocomplete.
On one hard there’s the emergence of the best chat bot we’ve ever created. Neat, I guess.
On the other hand, there’s VC capital scurrying around for the next big thing to invest in, lazy journalism looking for a source of new content to write about, talentless middle management looking for something to latch on to so they can justify their existence through cost cutting, and FOMO from people who don’t understand that it’s just a fancy chat bot.
I agree, but you make it sound like a fancy chat bot can’t do amazing things. I don’t use any openAI products for moral reasons, but LLMs in general are amazing tools, and good entertainment.
They’re impressive, no doubt but the jury is still out on how useful they actually are given their ability to be confidently incorrect about all kinds of things.
That’s probably the most humanlike aspect of them.
I wonder if they’re trained on content from Reddit’s politics subs.
