5 years ago I don't think most people thought ChatGPT was possible, or StableDiffusion/MidJourney/etc.

We're in an era of insane technological advancement, and I don't think it'll slow down.

Okay but the people who made the advancements are telling you it has already slowed down. Why don't you understand that? A flawed Chatbot and some art theft machines who can't draw hands aren't exactly worldchanging, either, tbh.

There are other people in the world. Some of them are inventing completely new ways of doing things, and one of those ways could lead to a major breakthrough. I'm not saying a GPT LLM is going to solve the problem, I'm saying AI will.

No, they're not. All the money is now on the LLM autocomplete chatbots.

Real progress on AI won't resume until after the LLM bubble has burst. (And even then investors will probably be wary of putting money in AI for probably a few decades, because LLMs are being marked as AI despite having little to do with it.)

It's quite depressing, really.

Who was making this "real progress on AI" that you mention? Why did they stop that when an LLM became popular?
