If by now you still think it's all just hype, it's safe to say you've succumbed to a mind virus that renders you unable to think critically about AI. Otherwise you'd have some level of awareness of just how far this technology has developed, and you should find these developments more than plausible.

A.I. is an extremely broad term. I'm not convinced that the capabilities of these LLMs are what they claim them to be.

That's not to say that advances in machine intelligence can't lead to something that's truly useful or even groundbreaking in the future. I'm just saying that the current technology isn't that and I therefore call it a hype.
