So all your points are "nu-uh".
Show me a single product that is even close to being worth the investment.
How can openAI ever recoup all the money?
Where? Writing boilerplate articles without content for dying news outlets? "Coding" hardly changed. You know why? Because typing code is by far the least time consuming part of the work.
And where are all those great graphic design products? You mean those cool images of Trump riding a laser velociraptor?
Yes. Also, Metaverse, blockchain, etc. Ever heard of the dotcom bubble? Same pattern.
Hard doubt. Because the number one virtue of a scientist is to know the limitations of their subject. So either you're not actually a researcher, or a really bad one.
You know very well that's not true as you have contradicted yourself a few times already.
Are we talking about money now? I thought we were talking about how its all a scam that's harming humanity.
Coding, writing, marketing, graphic design, ....
Cant you see stuff you are saying? Thats really emotional stuff, its clouding your rationale.
Yes, that as well. But mainly small tasks that used to be menial and now they are practically gone. Ideas, retouching, photo manipulations,....
Thats pretty naive. Dotcom bubble has nothing to do with it. A completely different thing.
I don't care. Plus I already said I'm not a researcher. I work at a company that does ai research.
You are so emotionally charged. I don't know if its only your hate of AI, or if you want to somehow win over me in this conversation. Its pointless. AI already helps a lot of people in an incredible amount of ways. Some of them were mentioned in the comments. Its not serious to call them scams and I don't know what else you said. Its not serious. I think its better to end this exchange. I must say I like talking to people with different views, but it has to be in good faith and I don't see that here with all the generalizations.
Let me rephrase that: "My salary depends on believing that AI is great, so I will not stop believing"
But sure, I'm emotionally charged. Not the guy who's (poorly) defending his excuse for work.
