as a curiosity - which technological hype of the last 20 years does AI / LLMs most remind you of?
Surely there are differences between some of them, or are they all the same to you?
- surgical_fire 4y agoVR? Wearable? Crypto? Literally everyone of those were massively hyped and sold as "the future" This is not to dismiss the current trend of AI. Hell, I pay for ChatGPT premium and love to play with StableDiffusion. But I do get bored at all the LARPing about how how LLM is just a step from AI taking over the world.

If VR had tapped into our nerves then things would’ve been different. No rational person expected this. Wearables are the future, depending on if you have any medical issues or not. You misinterpreted the hype likely because you’re not seeing the medical applications. Crypto replaced money and banks. Anybody with an idea of the function of money in a society also saw through this one. AI is different. It aims to replace a human brain. 5 years ago if you told me a program could listen to me literally speak and then write code that not only compiles, but works, with non trivial requirements, Id have laughed at you. Yet here we are.
