As I’ve said in my other post, I’m very confident that imagination is the true bottle neck. Writing lines of code? Nope. If one can imagine… trust me, writing lines of code is trivial. Most people have no imagination. So sure they can produ

Most of this “AI” stuff is dead on arrival. Most People do not care about the technology and frankly they don’t want to know about it. They want great experiences. That’s it. Technologists seem to have a reallyyyy hard time getting it.

Yeah and frankly the innovation would occur irrespective of llm’s. Would it be harder? Sure. And perhaps the difficulty adds an additional cost of passion being a necessary condition to embark on the innovation. Passion leads to really good

That’s exactly what I was referencing :)

Well it’s mostly explained by the fact that most people lack imagination and can’t hold enough concepts about a particular experience to think about how to re-imagine it, to begin with. Oh and sadly, llm’s are useless for the imaginative pa

People just don’t learn do they? It’s truly amazing. This is why I’m not surprised people are ‘blown away’ by llm’s. They were never truly intrinsically intelligent - they were expert regurgitators of knowledge on demand. Steve already suff

Agreed. Im very confident the experts in every field are not all that impressed by LLMs, relative of course, to those who were 'meh' in the first place. Experts meaning those who actually understand the content, not simply regurgi

"Here's an evil business idea: Use the LLMs to identify the users most likely to be "vocal influencers" and then prioritize resources for them, ensuring they get the best experience. You can engineer a bubble this way.&q

I dont get the craziness at all. A firm that is led by people who can envision, very clearly, revenue-generating and cost-reduction projects - wins. Writing code by hand is absolutely irrelevant. Who fucking cares. The former is what matter

The counter point to this is Apple who have not invested barely a dime in LLMs. Their stock price has not been crushed at all, quite the opposite in fact. They focus on the good stuff. Perhaps that's the luxury of living off the vision

Interesting stuff. Thx for sharing!

Broadly speaking, LLMs are destined to fail. Why? Because all the folks involved have created a technology in search for a problem to solve. That never, ever works. Steve Jobs of all people left this piece of wisdom behind. Its amazing how

Hook line and sinker.. Right so you are going to be left behind whilst the ground keeps shifting under you, given the models are non-deterministic and continuously changing? There was a big rush of prompt engineers. Where are they now? Nobo
