    Multi-billi9m industry sure, but it doesnt justify near trillions of spending and hype. AI is slightly behond search engines/internet in terms of usefulness, and even that was bubb…

    Well, apparently it has ended up being true. The orion model underperformed expectations by a lot, and even fell beh8nd chatgpt-4 in programing tasks.

    Why does your reply feel like it was edited by an llm? Still, feels like we are at risk of another AI winter soon, especially with such a huge bubble being built around it this tim…

    Well uh, I dont know if this is bad news or good news but GPT-5 might never be released, their "Orion" model seems to be barely better if not worse than GPT-4. Here: https://the-de…

    Interestingly enough, the new "Orion" model by OpenAI doesnt outperform, and even sometimes underperforms in programing tasks, when compared to GPT-4. There is an interesing discus…

    But why would you spend billions training an llm, when it barely shiws any improvement over the previous model. Unless OpenAI is willing to do something desperate, the best they ha…

    Open AI is already running a huge loss currently, and it isnt like o1 is cheap to run either. I wonder what price these llm's can be run in order to be profitable,and whether just …

    The thing with AI isnt that it doesn't have a whole lot of use cases,it is thr fact that its use cases dont justify the hype or investment it has gotten. It is somewhere in between…

    They are already bleeding money from what I'm aware, so they either have to jack up prices so much they could make up for 5bn in losses, or Sam Altman manages to convince investors…

    It is just the kind of scifi trope that wouod get investors invessting. OpenAI barely has any moat, I Seriously wonder why no one is talking about hoq much open weighted models are…

    How woukd you even put ads into an llm, especillay an open weighted one? Maybe thats why they are talking about a fully AI generated feed, despite how unpopular that is with users.…

    This seems to be a prevalent problem that people bring up. I remember there was a forum post about it that got a lot of flack, but maybe they were onto something. Here it is: https…

    Cheked, it is True,I rarely see or hear about iphones, so i just heard they sold badly and made a connection. Though why was that fact never mentioned in the adverts? Or did i just…

    My guess is that they changed it from our definition of AGI to their own: Artificial. Good enough. Intelligence. Besides, most people i know that use AI say they would get much mor…
