I seem to be totally outside the hype bubble, but I have to suspect there is a lot of imagineering and wild extrapolations in the elss technical hype bubbles. I am curious but no enough to go looking.
- tonyedgecombe 5mo ago>I seem to be totally outside the hype bubble I'm surprised you say that because it is all over Hacker News. Every single post is co-opted into promoting AI. Try finding a submission with fifty points or more than doesn't have AI or LLM's mentioned somewhere in the comments.
- zen928 5mo agoFeel free to retire from the field if you grow tired of seeing its latest developments.
- tonyedgecombe 5mo agoI already have. That’s not really the point though. I have no doubt AI is useful, I just don’t want to have it shoved in my face every five minutes.
- ehnto 5mo agoThat's a good point, I guess I see the Hacker News hype a bit more realistically then maybe I should. HN has definitely changed in the sense that I rarely see interesting technology or achievements hit the front page, that aren't AI related. It feels like AI has taken all the oxygen from the room.
