Re:Poll: Is AI Hype a Bubble? by ThalesX on Friday June 14, 2024 @07:54PM (#40686298)
I voted unsure. If I hadn't had this option, I would have voted overhyped.

Last year I had a subscription for ChatGPT, I had two homegrown apps running on OpenAI API (which have since moved to Groq with LLama), I had Copilot on VSCode, I had Midjourney, I was playing around locally with LMStudio and Stable Diffusion... and I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting some things.

Now I have nothing left. I use ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini (the free versions) from time to time, but it's a hit or miss and I'm extremely skeptical of GPT generated content which has a smell to it. The only people I know that use this constantly and unapologetically are the ex-blockchain grifters and junior (or wannabe) devs that think generating a small encapsulated function for a well known problem domain is a step away from the AI replacing humans.

So yeah, I'm unsure, but leaning towards overhype based on personal experience. We'll see, I'm too dumb to ride this wave I guess.
