> It’s when it fails at a simple task that we know what the limitations are — and trolls are the torch-bearers of this new englightenment. I really don't agree. Watching AI fail spectacularly is a great bread and circus, but identifying something's deficiencies is not the same as fixing it. The thing these trolls get so damningly right is their denouncement of AI; we can't rely on shit text-generators that fly by the seat of their pants. The insinuated "but it's useful and does real work" shtick is over; I don't even see people talking about RAG value-add anymore. The bubble popped, and now expectations are returning to normal. It's less of an enlightenment period and more of the "AI winter" that we've always known was going to occur once we exhausted the current scaling limits. The trolls are scratching beneath the surface and proving the prophecy right.
