@thomasfuchs That's quite pessimistic, and a bit unwarranted to bundle outright malicious scam with emerging technologies, just because all of them had some "hype" around them. And NFT didn't even have a hype, it had aggressive astroturfing.

@thomasfuchs The Sydney with existential crisis will definitely be buried like Tay bot.
However, I expect the tech behind LLMs will be used so widely, it won't even count as anything special any more, and be "just" a text processor.

@thomasfuchs Just like Deep Learning went from being "OMG OMG A.I." hype, through many seemingly useless toys like style transfer, to people naturally expecting to have a working search function in their photo gallery, and not even noticing that "HDR" stopped looking weird at some point.

@thomasfuchs AFAIK that didn't happen, except a news cycle and one MKBHD video.
