Steam engines were literally created specifically to help with mining, this is so hilariously telling of people into this hype.

And have you studied anything into modern mining yourself? Mines are starting to convert fleets into self driving trucks. Capabilities like image/video recognition that LLMs can do improve their identification and alert systems.
Modern AI is a whole lot more than just shitting out spam on the internet.

To be clear we're talking about less than 200 trucks by my count, most of which were built in 2013-2016, the Baghdad Arizona mine still hasn't deployed anything yet as far as I know (I asked people in that area). None of this has anything to do with code completion or image generation and LLMs don't even do anything semi-related to vision. That's entirely beyond the scope of how they're designed.
It is not surprising to me anymore the threads that get pulled to justify this insane hype, but what does shock me is that it's going on 8 months of the same very tired and thin arguments that get smaller and smaller in their claims the more questions you ask.
