The amount of AI news/HN discussion is mostly a decaying function of time since last major GPT release. Right now people have gotten accustomed to GPT 4, so people quietly muse that AI has plateaued and will never match human ingenuity.
When GPT 5 comes out we’ll see another burst of people saying that strong AI is now just around the corner (and should either be stopped — or businesses should be started up to capitalize on it).
Progress is continuous but hype is cyclical.
- apwell23 3y ago> Right now people have gotten accustomed to GPT 4 Anecdotally, Lots of my friends and family was using it heavily when it came out but they seem to rarely use it anymore. I use it all the time while coding and cooking but it is not something I couldn't live without. I can easily do the same thing even without chatgpt .
