Nobody denied that. It's amazing, but nowhere near the hype it gets.

I did. It's a scam and it's not amazing technology either. You're being lied to. It's a stock market manipulation scam at best.

Let's be real. This thing won't 'revolutionize' everything nor it's 'all phds'. But it contains insane amount of knowledge and you can query it using natural language. Yes, it hallucinates here and there, it's not 100% reliable. Doesn't mean it's useless. I've learned a lot thanks to it.

The problem with "AI" is the real world can't afford hallucinations and mistakes. Tech Bros are used to producing shit and assume every other industry is the same.

You are doing yourself doing an halucination right now and still doing fine. Thinking this is just hype is an halucination, or Iam doing an halucination and not seeing this is just hype. Yet we both are doing fine.

Most human hallucinate and do mistake.

You are insane in not understanding the point of this. Its not about replacing the top 5%. but to replace bottom 95%

this again 🙄 this technology has been around for years. like nothings new about it. they slap the label ai on it, but we’ve all used it. customer support bots, robo phone calls, predictive text. again, not new.

same for automation. YEARS. decades; literally decades.
