Sorry - straw manning on internet comments is so bad I shouldn't have even gone there with the crypto analogy, couldn't help because I see parallels with regards to general reception.

I agree with what you said here 100%.

Working with it daily I can't help but be slightly more optimistic though. I see LLMs as being a major component of future apps. You have servers, databases, game engines, and now there's this generative token thing you can use for... quite a lot - without an internet connection no less. It will only get better.

The fact that RAG isolates specific document data in a db and is based on regular database querying IME solves the problem with regular LLM accuracy, but yeah ofc still could be some errors like with anything
