Where I work it has become standard to use these tools. Being dismissive of it's capabilities is a ship that sailed 2 years ago, and unfortunately it will only get more powerful.

I hate it though and wish we could put all this back into Pandora's box.

    I know you think they're good, I asked what makes them good. Maybe you can you give an example of what makes them good? It might help me understand your perspective.

    Theres a really interesting episode of the podcast "diary of s ceo" with the guest Ed Zitron. He says a lot about how we can see some really good uses for AI but not trillions of dollars worth of use. Billions, maybe, but trillions? Personally, im wondering if this is a way for the uber rich to suck as much money out of the rich before the economy collapses.

    The investment speculation angle really does feel like crypto 2.0. Blockchain tech has some interesting, though niche right now, uses.

    I'm with Ed I absolutely don't think LLMs are worthless but anyone who thinks a critical mass of real people want to pay real dollars for slop are living a fantasy.
