The next logical step for cars were flying cars, the next logical step for planes was space travel. Both were hyped not so long ago, people believed in both, it never happened and it isn't closer to us now than 50 years ago
I'm not saying it doesn't bring any value, I'm just saying that if you think we should give $7 gazillion to Altman because he's building skynet by 2030 you're smoking crack
- rich_sasha 1y agoThat's a pretty rude response to a considered reply. I am not saying we give all money to Altman. I'm saying AI is likely overvalued. But can it evolve into something far more capable given investment? Yes, it may. Flying cars and space travel didn't happen, but might have. And funnily enough, they might still happen, with drone taxis and Virgin Galactic / SpaceX. Might. That's how it works with speculative investment.
