Summary: AI, like Big Data before it, doesn't actually produce business value
I'd say there is value to be had, but not enough to keep the bubble inflated. There's going to be a correction.
It's fortunate that large language models are easy to run once trained, and have almost zero marginal cost per token.
- DaoVeles 2y agoI do like their clear take on the idea that the AI hype is is the long tail if Big Data hype. That it is the idea of getting machine learning/training to find the information in the data rather than explicitly spelling out what to find.
- tim333 2y agoThere's some truth in the idea that current AI is maybe a bit like big data in that it's not providing huge value against the cost to produce it. But the future prospects are quite different - see all the AI sci fi movies vs the zero big data movies.
