Yes. Tech is a hype-based sector where the actual value of products is obfuscated by marketing. When the AI craze settles down, hopefully we'll stop seeing it injected into everything.

It will be like the IoT bloom of 2015ish where everyone and their mother had a new IoT product on Kickstarter.

I just hope it dies fast so that we can concentrate on the actual utility of LLMs and other AI sectors.

By everything do you mean 1/3 lemmy.world articles and comments or?

I mean AI bullshit like Copilot being added to Windows then quietly paywalled, ridiculous products like the Rabbit R1, and the arms race involving products that aren't ready for market or produced ethically. LLMs still just make shit up a lot of the time.
