I think the fixation on flakiness and hallucinations are exactly why tech people tend to underestimate how disruptive these LLMs really are. LLM tutors don't replace teachers entirely, but just being able to express your confusion and getting a good answer nearly instantly is invaluable. LLM customer support agents can't handle all queries, but they can handle the basic ones and categorize the remaining questions for people to look at. Also, LLM autocomplete is a 10x productivity boost for the support workers that remain. And language barriers are a thing of the past. LLMs can digest years worth of meeting notes, Excel sheets, and Powerpoint decks. Bigcorps struggle so much with this stuff and LLMs will be a complete gamechanger. Fully automated translation and subtitling of all video/audio material will increase the reach of multimedia 20x. Regional content becomes global content. Creative industries (books, movies, comics, music) will also become much more competitive and winner-takes-all. This AI boom is the real deal and there is no going back.
