I personally think it’s a lot of bs

    Making the call now. AI as a business will be dead in 1 or 2 years.

    It will have moved on to individuals running their specialized smaller models focused on specific tasks on their own machines, and google and openAI running their more general AI at a loss every year.

      It depends on what you’re calling AI. The LLM hype may die down, but Ml/AI in general has been continuing to grow and expand for well over a decade. It’s just unlikely that all the things being prophesied right now will come to fruition.

      Whenever a new hype is going around I like to think back about the 3D printing craze and how little is left of all the glorious promises.

      They are cool and a neat way of manufacturing things, but what they are absolutely not is magic machines.

      AI/ML will find it’s niche and will allow for new and even exciting things, but it won’t be the end-all-be-all in it’s current form. It’s an overgrown version of statistics after all.

        Not sure what the promises were that you in particular heard. But 3D printing is a fundamental part of prototyping now. The vast majority of companies designing physical products have 3D printers to try out new ideas.

          Yeah, 3D printers are everywhere. Both as a business and as a hobby, it’s bigger than it has ever been.
