The current AI hype has single-handedly reduced the time I spend in here by 80%.
It's all everybody talks about, starry-eyed. Hey, I made a ChatGPT programming language. Hey, I put ChatGPT into my doorbell. Hey, why don't we solve world hunger with ChatGPT?
And the most irritating of all: For any topic, there is a comment saying "I have asked ChatGPT about <topic>, here's what it has to say about it: ..."
The AI winter can't come soon enough.
- capableweb 4y ago> The AI winter can't come soon enough. The "winters" are when all the interest work actually happens, as things aren't as hyped-driven as during the "summers". Same for cryptocurrency stuff, when everything is going up and all the hype is happening, it stops being interesting, but when everything is going down, is when the real innovation starts happening.

I personally wouldn’t mind if there was some interesting discussion going on, but it seems to be mostly people worshipping it’s the second coming of Christ, cynical dismissals of LLMs, or doomsday predictions.
- pncnmnp 4y agoI'm not sure about filtering comments, but you can filter posts by creating a blacklist on top of something like Hacker News RSS (https://hnrss.github.io/ https://hnrss.github.io/). I did something similar a while back (https://hnbest.pythonanywhere.com/ https://hnbest.pythonanywhere.com/).
