Exactly, they are a breakthrough built on top of decades of steadily paced progress. Those decades are conveniently ignored by the commercial interests, who like to act as if those once in a decade breakthroughs are actually the normal pace of research at their company, and the next one is right around the corner.

Ironically, that's exactly why all the greedy cunt executives think general AI is right around the corner... They haven't been paying attention and have no clue about the decades of research and development that got it this far.

Nor do they remember the previous AI boom of the 90's and 2000's, where the likes of Lernout & Hauspie were also promising the world. In that case they went bankrupt and executives were convicted of fraud, because they resorted to "creative" accounting to paper over solvency issues.

Hell, not even I remember all that BS and it's still obvious this current gen is fluffed to the point of literal fraud. If only we had a government that cared about fraudsters...

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
