    nah, the person you responded too, does not understand that this is a really big hype bubble. The LLM predictive text stuff is really neat, but it cant be applied for anything critical due to always needing a human to double check the LLM output. The investment they are making is delusional megalomaniac billionaires who know they have to bet on the next big thing, but don’t understand what it is either.

    This is the digital equivalent of throwing shit (GPUs) at the wall and hoping some will stick. It is possible the infrastructure they are building will be able to be used for something that doesn’t exist yet, but that’s really more thoughts and prayers than actual science.

    Not to mention if they keep peddling LLMs as a holy grail they will keep tainting their AI stuff to slow adopters who wont give them another chance, or when LLMs will start causing more deaths per year than cars or smoking.

    It’s a pipe dream and a massive gamble. It is late stage capitalism at it’s finest.

      You think I dont understand when I just have a different opinion. I read what you think. I dont agree. That doesnt mean I dont understand.

      You think this is a hype bubble. Sure, you can think that. Its not a fact. Your perception is your own. Some analysts agree with you, some doesnt. Either way, nobody can actually say if this is a bubble that will pop one day, or if it wont pop and revenues will come.

      And you dont have to go into threads talking about me. You clearly dont even understand that its possible to have two different opinions about this and there is no right or wrong answer yet.

        Sorry to offend you.

        This is a classic internet argument paradox. Yes you can argue and have different opinions about subjective matters.

        This is objectively a bubble because experts in bubbles say so. Just based on numbers.

        You can still hold out hope and belief, but those are subjective and immaterial to this argument.

        Here’s a handy schematic. https://lemmy.ca/post/53225771
