“LLMs were supposed to change the world. We were promised they would cure
cancer, augment scientists, make office jobs a thing of the past, and reach
superhuman levels of intelligence. But now we can see that was all total
bullshit. AI tools are too inaccurate to boost productivity through
augmentation, let alone automate jobs or even resemble a thinking thing. To
make matters worse, it is becoming increasingly clear, day by day, that these
models are not going to improve, given that their returns are diminishing at
lightning speed. On top of that, no AI company is even remotely profitable, and
the market leader, OpenAI, is actually getting further and further away from
profitability as its costs skyrocket and its revenue growth stalls due to
people realising these tools are legitimately crap. Despite these unavoidable
facts, well over a trillion dollars is being poured into this industry, with
the vast majority of those funds being funnelled into OpenAI, pushing the
valuations of associated companies, like Nvidia, to unprecedented heights. If
you headed an AI company, how would you square this hole? How would you rapidly
expand revenue to at least pay for this investment and avoid a valuation
collapse? Well, for the CEO of OpenAI, Sam Altman, the answer is AI browsers,
erotica and AI social media sites! Unfortunately, I think Altman needs to take
a serious maths lesson, because none of this makes sense, and these "solutions"
will actually make OpenAI's problems twice as bad.”
