I am increasingly starting to believe that all these rumors and "hush hush" PR initiatives about "reasoning AI" is an attempt to keep the hype going (and VC investments) till the vesting period for their stock closes out.

I wouldn't be surprised if all these "AI" companies have come to a point where they're basically at the limits of LLM capabilities (due to problems with its fundamental architecture) while not being able to solve its core drawbacks (hallucinations, ridiculously high capex and opex cost).

It's the Elon Musk narrative making we've been seeing over and over again. It's hype. They're about to run out of input data because they've sucked up everything they could. The Internet is being fed a bunch of bad results that come from LLM produced output which enshittifies the Internet further. These companies are burning cash and grid energy while the world burns. Unless there's a spectacular breakthrough, this can't keep going on much longer.

It would cost a lot of money, but you can definitely go through and manually sanitize the data.

That would give a good bump in performance, both quality and resources required to run it.

Quality over quantity.

they're not even close to out of input data, you forget youtube exists.
