To recycle a rant, there's a whole bunch of hype and investor money riding on a very questionable idea here, namely:

"If we make a really really good specialty text-prediction engine, it could be able to productively mimic an imaginary general AI, and if it can do that then it can productively mimic other specialty AIs, because it's all just intelligence, right?"

investor money is seduced by the possibilities and many of the investors are in it for FOMO.

few really understand what the limits of the tech are. and if it will even unlock the usecases for which it is being touted.
