It's not just here, it's everywhere. I'm excited for the day the hype bubble collapses.
keyword BUBBLE. I beg fresher minds PLEASE carefully disect?
What we (easily) see correlates with the cliche' "Tip of the Iceberg". Sentient souls natrually grasp this metaphor, analogy, simile...
Better: Something is rotten in the state of Denmark

Kind reader. When this bubble bursts what takes place afterward?
Lol tell me about it. My problem isn't only that it's LLM, but the same 3-5 topics over and over and over and over again: > This is how I use ChatGPT to write my program. > Here is a cool SaaS that will generate a CV for you with state of the art AI > AGI is happening in 5 minutes! (If it wouldn't happen, read the previous statement again) > LLMs are going to kill/save humanity > Show HN: we worked on this revolution…
> Here is a cool SaaS I think it's the most annoying one. We are spammed by Bootstrap/Tailwind-styled closed-source wrappers around the API currently hyped (with Google login, and pricing page, all the time). We would be legitimately angry if we were flooded with "Here is some random ClosedSource.exe application, run it on your computer" because that would not improve anything, but for some reason web sites are OK.
I have been on HN for 16.5 years and I don’t plan to stop now. It’s been worse. Trends come and go. The stories and comments come and go. HN is constantly changing. You can’t attach yourself to how something was before. It will change again. Thats just life.
Appreciate the perspective. I'm on year 9ish of HN, maybe I'm just hitting my first introspective point on the whole space.
In the 1990s there was another big AI push, rules, the RETE algorithm, etc., and, in the middle of it, gave talks at Wharton, Stanford, etc. First cut, could think of it as a generalization of Select-When. The code had a problem, and one afternoon had an idea, got a pizza, and in the morning had some running, innovative code that saved much of the project. Gee, I got $1000. Soon that AI flopped, no surprise. Current…

And following. n0 suprise
Being Autistic I've no perception "what THEY think" only what tools work TODAY
Allegiance or affinity beyond IT WORKS or it FAILS please pardon, I need only tools which work NOW
Your NICK, noted. Don't hesitate to vet mine.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Your opinion, like many others, is wildly misinformed. It’s not “just managers”. People are legit using copilot and it is saving time and helping develop better code. There are 100+ engineers in my company using it. And it’s not just copiloting, it is better than Wikipedia for explaining RFCs or academic papers. That is very important for ramping people when they can interactively ask hundreds of questions to learn a…
Yeah yeah, I've heard all of this a million times. Yet, I open up Claude and it keeps forgetting to not give me React code after I remind it multiple times to not give me React code. It still randomly drops all context of the conversation at some point and enters a loop where it regurgitates the same answers it already gave me. It still gets basic facts wrong, even when the reference/factsheet is provided to it a sen…
> I dread the future we're creating where people are relying on LLMs to parse RFCs or papers.
Amen & Hallelujah (forgive) We're ALL Jock Tamshun's bairns ...
Hit yer FLAGGIT... I amn Scot's Arysh, that means "G__ Children"
Sad fact, this "future" got ahead of us.
Still, this story is far from over.
It is not we were sleeping only that AI / LLM has no need to.
Run THIS though whatever "DAVE I CAN'T DO... " boogalooz
Make WE understand.
How can this AI / LLM do" (PLz Follow along)
#1 slake THIRST ~ no drinking water, living beings? SHOW US put a water tank in a truck? What profit will ye' boogz gain there?
Please show verifiable proof AI has mitigated this NEED.
#2 How does said AI / LLM feed those STARVING rain Manna -food- (please forgive Western ref) for starved refugees? Wilderness?
Please present tangible proof.
#3 Explain (like I AM 5) how's this Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot BOOGALOO able to concieve a child?
Eaux dear, & hayell yeah I forkin went there but MANY would be grateful to see verifiable evidence this has been accomplished.
WE'll wait but we DO NEED TO KNOW
MAKE US UNDERTAND
Provide verifible tangible physical evidence.
What's 'AI' (et alia) bring to mitigate NEED.
Water,
Food.
Survival?
For Human LIFE?
Riddle US that, AI?
H-Sapiens (?) is no "Special species" What doth AI offer to ALL life on this 3r'd rock from the sun?
SHOW US HOW YOU CAN

Per GBNF Teacher:
G__ Forgives. OUTLAWS DON'T. We simply help make certain nobody misses their interview

Amen & Hallelujah (plz allow western reference)
Arseh0lez in the mix? go ahead, Hit yer FLAGGIT
We're ALL Jock Tamshun's Bairns ... Meanin' "ALL G__ Children"
Myself are Scot's Arysh. Readers might be in China, Iraq, N. Korea. It still stands ~ ALL meanin' ALL Jock Tamshun's bairn. All means ALL, ya see?
That said, this story is far from over.
'AI' don't know peanut butter from cat poop
How'd AI / LLM do for IRL (in real life) Jeopardy - NO play on words.
Let's try THIRST (no water) for $100, Alex.
Has AI / LLM ever slaked THIRST ~ no drinking water? Living beings?? Did ever 'AI/LLM' put a water tank on a pickup truck? SHOW US (or What profit will ye' boogaloo's gain there?) We're open minded, simply SHOW US
How about Starvation for $500, Alex? WHOOPEE The Daily Double!
Has AI / LLM EVER fed the STARVING Or rain Manna (overlook Western ref) upon starving refugees? Wilderness? Please, (please?) show factual examples? PLEASe show us what AI/LLM has done to remedy this NEED
Let's try immaculate conception for $700 - Invoke our absent SArCASM flag -
Explain how's this Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot BOOGALOO AI might approximate companionship much less intimacy never mind concieve life. Merely curious
This is a Genuine need of all life forms (cockroaches included) even P. Dorov (telegram) ~ end snarkasm ~
Does there exist ANY verifiable evidivence supporting how this "AI / LLM" provides any HELP for the needs of ALL life, including even primates?
MAKE US UNDERTAND
Exactly (and be specific)
What does 'AI' (et alia) bring to mitigate fundamental NEED.
Water,
Food.
Company.
LIFE?
HOW DOES tHIS HELP
Genuinely & with Deep Sincerety we ask?
