@escarpment @carnage4life And that problem, that they've invested $$$ in a technology that's not worth $$$ is what's putting AI in the bitcoin category.

These companies now have to convince other companies that they *NEED* their worthless tech and must spend $$$ to get it.

The optimal outcome for OpenAI/Bard/etc. is an "Emperor's New Clothes" scenario where so many big players have bought in to the BS that no one dares say it's BS.

@tob @carnage4life I can't really comment on the "politics" of the technology- who's trying to hype what; who's overstating potential applications. My personal view is that this technology is way more interesting than bitcoin. I think people are way too quick to dismiss it as not artificial intelligence when it passes a bunch of tests for intelligence that psychologists had devised to characterize human and animal intelligence.

@tob @carnage4life I also can't deny the applications I have seen with my own eyes: I ask it software programming questions and it helps me come to a solution. I've seen it hooked up to a robot and make the robot pretty "intelligent".
