Honestly, he's wrong though.
I know tons of full stack developers who use AI to GREATLY speed up their workflow. I've used AI image generators to put something I wanted into the concept stage before I paid an artist to do the work with the revisions I wanted that I couldn't get AI to produce properly.
And first and foremost, they're a great use in surfacing information that is discussed and available, but might be buried with no SEO behind it to surface it. They are terrible at deducing things themselves, because they can't 'think', or coming up with solutions that others haven't already - but so long as people are aware of those limitations, then they're a pretty good tool to have.
It's a reactionary opinion when people jump to the 'but they're stealing art!' -- isn't your brain also stealing art when it's inspired by others art? Artists don't just POOF, and have the capability to be artists. They learn slowly over time, using others as inspiration or as training to improve. That's all stable diffusors do - just a lot faster.
ah yes it's reactionary to checks notes not support the righteous biggest bubble since dotcom era
you okay out there bud?
You might want to look up the definition of reactionary. Because that's...exactly what it means. To oppose reform/advancements.
You okay there bud?
Congratulations -- Currently you and 18 others are not smarter than an average high schooler.
Opposing actual fraud isn't what reactionary means.
You've got a pretty high bar of proof for proving "actual fraud"...
You can't provably say that this is a "bubble" as claimed. The tools do what they purport to do. Where's the fraud?
It's not remotely within the realm of plausibility that Sam Altman genuinely believes any of the horseshit he spews. (And that's ignoring that they gained their funding by lying about the core intent of their organization by pretending to be serving the public interest and not profiteering.)
Welcome to earth. That's basically every business ever, and you'll quite literally never be able to prove that in court; which is the litmus test for this claim.
