#3LLMs have benefits, but it's a real negative that you can no longer be sure if you are communicating with a human on the internet or reading something which was written by a human.
It seems like public keys and web of trust are the future in terms of knowing that there is a human on the other end of the internet.

#5LLMs are already a commodity product. They’re going to be a feature of cloud providers not a standalone business.

#6OpenAI has first-mover advantage, but hardly a monopoly on the technology or the people behind AI. In fact, I think we’ve already hit peak Altman, and his star will be diminishing from here on.

Even if you are reading something written by a human on the internet that's still no guarantee of trustworthiness.

In some senses it already has, though not always how you meant: I was once accused of using ChatGPT to write a Reddit comment that I genuinely wrote myself without AI assistance.
