Note that broadly people that have an affinity to "thought leader" are not "authorities in their field".

The "thought leaders" are the people that take credit for making obvious wishlist statements and then saying it's all due to them should it happen. Like if I as some internet rando said "we should really cut down on CO2", and then somehow the world manages to reduce CO2 one year and I say "I was a thought leader and the reason why we reduced CO2".

Ok but that is the definition on Wikipedia

If someone is using it wrong, they're using it wrong.

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

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.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
