Folks like you have been hyping up LLMs like crazy. Its time for some reflection.

The failure risk of OAI is rising.

Google, Meta and so on are not dying.

So whats your point fella?

The internet for the average person has converged to a handful of products and services.

Your point being?

People prefer centralised stuff since it takes care a lot of stuff for them. They dont actually care all that much about technology that yield decentralised outcomes. I know that may be difficult for many here to comperehend.

And, so what? You've posted a whole load of nothing.

Well said.

The reality is, unless youre working on something that is actually revolutionary and positively going to impact humanity (which is rare I know) - who cares? Many people get wrapped up in their identity for work and its pretty sad. Little do they realise, they play straight into the hands of those who want them to be a productive asset and nothing more.

Fella youre not saying anything specific enough. Seriously, its kinda annoying to read these posts again and again.

Show me something, preferably with the financials to support it!

That is not what I said. But youre a CTO, so Im not surprised. Stick to your lane of expertise perhaps.

Essentially decentralisation sounds nice, but doesnt work in practice.

Yeah I think Thiel's fundamental basis for his investment in FB was not that it would generate a tonne of revenues from Ads - but rather - it could become a large scale surveillance tool. Which benefits his interests (it seems).

If I was an investor I would not be happy with my money being poured into this pointless project.

Haha I love that. I literally wrote this post...

"This sounds like an expensive solution to a marketing problem re. the product. And if one digs even further, perhaps an issue with your product line - the benefits of it aren't immediately presentable in a simplified way to the extent it is differentiated relative to the competitors."

Link?

"The low hanging fruit is extremely abundant, for those who are able and willing to find it."

Ok fella. Its so abundant right. So why not go ahead, start your own firm and profit from this opportunity, that according to you exists? lol.

"I think it's easy to forget how much low-hanging-fruit there still "

Such as?

And you just described exactly why firms are going to be hurt in the long run by what is happening.

Short run? Sure shipping seems to accelerate. But as you mentioned - you are actually downtooling and optimising for what you do outside of work. Which is what labour always does. But now you have a tool to enhance it!

"IMO, this is the whole point of the article: AI tools "help" a lot when we are completely uninformed. But in doing that, they prevent us from getting informed in the first place. Which is counter-productive in the long term."

Great way of framing it - simple and cuts straight to the heart of the issue.

The smart ones saw this early on.

The rest are just catching up to the reality now.
