ChatGPT is cool and all, but this breathless hype is starting to feel like “blockchain will take over everything” hype from a few years back. Shiny new toy hype.
I try to be skeptical about new tech. But I honestly don't see GPT anything like Blockchain. Blockchain was always opposed by the establishment, it was a scrappy hacker thing trying to disrupt traditional finance. By contrast, GPT is born of the monopolies, and it has such immediately obvious applications.
This has so many uses in everything I do everyday. I use it so much already I think I might be developing a dependence. That’s the sign, at least anecdotally, that the hype is warranted.
