AI is the future, I don't care who is dubious of it. LLMs in their Transformer variations may not survive the long run, but LLMs are not the whole of AI. lets do keep in mind that today's limitations become yesterdays speed bumps. Perhaps there's a new architecture or a tweak to the existing one that gets us the rest of the way there. There has never been this rapid of a dislocation in capital investment that didn't make a big dent in the long run. You can swear up and down that it may not happen, but do you think all of these companies, and now countries, are going to just take a hit and let it go? No friggin way. It's AT LEAST as prevalent as nuclear was, but I'd argue more since you can't run nukes on your laptop. The other thing about AI is that it can be used to different degrees in tech. you can't incorporate half of a supersonic jet's supersonic-ness into something that is less than supersonic. You can incorporate partial AI solutions that still mix with human control. The mixture will evolve over time to an optimal balance. whether that is more AI and less humans or vice versa remains to be seen.
