Can you give some specific instances of impossible things being claimed?

When I search for such things I tend to only find claims that claims were made.

The main claim that I was claiming that TFA the claims to be incorrectly claimed to be impossible by the LLM-hype critic is roughly "current generative AI business models can be successful".

The critic initially argued that there's no way to make money the way they were going, and then has subsequently concluded that any reports that they are making money are therefore fraudulent.

That is really hard to follow.

But I think it boils down to a form of.

Claim: There can never be an X

Response: This here Y is an X

Claim: No it isn't!

I was asking for examples of Y so we could judge for ourselves.

That would be "a profitable AI company that isn't just fudging their numbers."

I do not have an example to offer.
