No, the question is how long it will take before the world admits that this "AI" emperor is naked.

Whaddayamean "notwithstanding"? The hype can't be notwithstanding, since hype is all it is.
- openrisk 3y agoThis is insular attitude that will not serve well the open source desktop (and libreoffice in particular). Reasons to be annoyed by the "AI" emperor certainly abound, but one might get too distracted by distasteful mass hysteria phenomena and miss important developments and trends that are here to stay. The point is that there is an entire universe of popular and very useful data science tools and models (built around Python, R etc.) of which the current AI/ML/LLM's algorithms are just a tiny and rather extreme use case. At some point libreoffice must move beyond VBA if it wants to remain relevant.
