| There is no single reason. Nobody will argue that LLMs are already quite useful at some tasks if used properly. As for the opposing view, there are so many reasons. * Founders and other people who bet their money on AI try to pump up the hype in spite of problems with delivery * We know some of them are plainly lying, but the general public doesn't * They repeat their assumptions as facts ("AI will replace most X and Y jobs by year Z") * We clearly see that the enormous development of LLMs has plateaued but they try to convince the general public it's the contrary * We see the difference on how a single individual (Aaron Swartz) is treated when making a small copyright infringement, and how the consequences for AI companies like OpenAI or Meta who copied the whole contents of Libgen are non-existent. * Some people like me just hate AI slop - in writing and imaging. It just puts me off and I stop reading/watching etc. There are many more points like this. |
