    Its here to stay, but we are in the “we dont know the best way to use it try everything” phase.

    From my experience using it as a consumer, and writing custom agents; i think the way it will pan out is as specific tooling that unlocks things that weren reaaonable to do before. Key word here is tool. Its just a god damned tool.

    We will still need to hire people, because something llms can never do is be held accountable. Someone needs to use the tool.

    As far as the data centers, this is an overenthusastic bet that all compute will be rented. It wont. At best a few additional datacenters needed for hosted inference, not at the scale they are going for.

      Here to stay, but the industry might collapse if they don’t become profitable, and llms can become a small niche after that, made of people that pay to use or run locally

        It’s like the .com bubble.

        Yes, we still have internet, and there are still websites, and lots of people use them. But it’s nowhere near the promises that were made during that era.

      I agree we are stuck with it. I see the most benefit of AI going to businesses and scammers. Right now I don’t see AI being very beneficial to the average Joe. I feel like people know how to prompt AI better than they ever have and AI hallucinates more than it ever has. People need to fact check everything it tells them.
