Nobody is saying AI won't be a big change, they're just saying it won't be as massive, world revolutionary, next stage in human evolution, as Microsoft and OpenAI are making it out to be and shit like AGI is nowhere near close to happening, if it's even possible, and I'm fully convinced even if it is possible that it won't happen in my lifetime. So I'm unconvinced investors will be willing to keep throwing tens of billions into an unprofitable venture for the next 10+ years. While morons like Sam Altman ask for hundreds of billions more.
If all we can point to right now is a bunch of stupid memes then meh. And hopefully governments will put a stop to the rampant theft and deep fake nonsense before it causes serious damage to society. AI may "improve" workflow by making millions of humans jobless (and then how does a country support millions extra unemployed?) but I really don't think that's justification for the extreme hype Microsoft/OpenAI put behind AI and when it doesn't live up to the hype is when things will backfire.
It's an extreme to say that AI will die into nothing, it's also an extreme the way that Microsoft/OpenAI/Sam Altman hype up AI. I take the stance that it's going to be a big change but not one that lives up close to the hype Microsoft/OpenAI put on it. And AI is still full of holes and dumb as shit in many areas, AGI which is the ultimate goal is nowhere close.
Microsoft is going to end up pumping $50bn+ into AI every year for the next 5-10 years, Lol.
