There is value in current ai but everyone who’s in charge thinks it’s economic value.
Comment on Not even OpenAI's $200/mo ChatGPT Pro plan can turn a profit

That’s because the whole thing is stupid. Is made by stupids, marketed to stupids, paid by stupids, and for the most part used by stupids. Because they’re stupid.
There’s a pattern in there if you look closely.

If AI cost peanuts to run, this would be a very reasonable point. But it doesn’t. It’s staggeringly expensive to operate something like ChatGPT.
So any use of genAI has to consider the question “Do the benefits provided actually justify the cost?”
Obviously, in a capitalist society this turns into “How can we monetize this?”, but even in a fully socialist society it would still be necessary to ask if this technology is actually providing sufficient societal benefit to actually justify the material resource cost of running it.

Or you’re stupid because you can’t use LLMs effectively, don’t understand their value, and now you’re angry because of that.

The amount of money stupid gives to stupid, though. Makes my stomach churn. So much for so little.

I feel like you're putting it down, but for the life of me, I am not picking it up. Can you please try explaining again, but slower? Use simple words. Like I'm stupid or something.

I think he’s trying to say it’s marketing’s fault.
