Fear and anger sell.
This AI shit is the leftist version of “illegal immigrants are stealing yur jobs”

To be fair, the “infinite scaling” vision Altman and such are selling is quite a dystopia. And they are the ones pushing it.
It’s not reality at all. But it’s kinda reasonable for people to hate that specifically.

Isn’t everything infinitely scaling?

No.
The path I see forward for ML is small, task specific models running on your smartphone or PC, with some kind of bitnet architecture so it uses basically no power.
If that sounds incompatible with corporate AI, that’s because it is.
