Lookup Brandolini's law IMHO generative AI is an automated way of generating bullshit, which is fine as long as the data used for training is not bs itself you can probably derive some value in a limited set of contexts. Once you have the BS make it into the wild and it is fed back into the generator we will enter a BS downspiral. If you're old enough to remember the world before search engines and how awesome search engines were in the beginning you've already seen this in action. Try using a search engine today. SEO spam made them almost unusable with really bad results. This is the future of generative "AI". Show it work really really well for a small set of cases, get the imagination going and you're going heads first into a situation involving and emperor and lack of clothes. The AI hype is also not new. !e've had several cycles of "thinking machines" taking over. I don't see how this time it's different. It's always something that gets hyped up and gets the hustlers going: vr, ml, selfdriving, crypto, llms. Look at the tech and how it works, use it, ignore the hype.
