You’re 100% right, both of these technologies are absolutely stained by the people pushing them for their own benefit. I think they could be extremely useful technologies and I’m hoping this era of overhype doesn’t push the timeframe of that usefulness back because a bunch of billionaires were trying to buy their 4th yacht.
I’m just really tired of the parroted and reactionary “blockchain/AI bad” comments because they often have no nuance. It’s not the implementation that’s “bad”, it’s seemingly that they used the tech at all.
Agreed on that, too.
There was this one instance of a remastered” TV show, partially processed with GANs, a long time ago. I pointed this out (as apparently this little detail was forgotten with time), and I got chewed out. Reddit commenters either claimed I was lying (when I helped work on it), or declared it was now awful and intolerable just because it’s “AI”… something they had loved for years, way before the LLM bubble.
