Comment on Nvidia CEO pushes back against report that his company's $100B OpenAI investment has stalled

We are officially at the denial stage of this developing economic disaster.
At least they already fired everybody, in anticipation of their wild AI success. Hopefully, some of these companies will pivot, and figure out how to actually survive, and they’ll have to hire a lot of people to replace their AI.
See we keep getting told that AI is a great success and also a threat to humanity and that it’s going to take over the world in 5 minutes if we’re not careful. There’s been literally years now and nothing has happened.
If that isn’t evidence of a bubble I don’t know what is. But somehow the complete lack of any meaningful progress seems to convince people even more
LLMs like what is being overhyped cannot take over the world.
They are not constant-thought processors. They are the most overbuilt autocomplete of all time.
The “take over the world” problem is the capitalists who see dollar signs in automating away humans.
If the current capabilities were enough to eliminate some human jobs, then they aren’t coming back. Someone else will offer up a cheap ai solution when the giants fall as the open source and Chinese models catch up and surpass them.

IDK, the Altman talk a few days ago sounded a lot like bargaining.
