>The tech industry is currently bending backwards so far it's collective spine will snap any second now trying to convince people LLM's are the next big huge thing, and there's just nothing there. 150 billion dollars for fancy autocomplete. I wouldn't say nothing there, and that something is something. Translation, rephrasing and a lot of management tasks like summarizing what happened are way easier and better than any previous models I've seen. Creating images and logos is usually very constrained by what you can describe without describing what's not there, it's impressive nonetheless. Autopilot code autocomplete is pretty good, but not replaces all engineers good, rather increased efficiency good. The problem is they all lie about it being the thing that will replace all knowledge work. CEOs are buying it up and salivating. It could replace a lot of middle management at my company. But those are the people that are staying.
