ChatGPT AI may not be as popular as expected. Some people think its failing to follow the adoption curve successful tech does.

I'm not going to bet against AI in the long run, but I wonder if ChatGPT (in its current form) will gain mass adoption.

People are treating it like artificial general intelligence

Exactly. And people seem to think that we are close to AGI. We ain’t. AGI is many decades away.

Yes, its definitely been over-hyped (by some) in that regard.

That said, next-gen LLMs that have greatly reduced the hallucination problem are on the horizon, and I would say will be much more successful.

The medical AI the Microsoft employee talks about here (and other peoples versions of it) is almost sure to be a huge global success.

Many use cases are an example of using it as a solution when there isn’t a problem. I feel like people use it to replace human beings and it fails at that, when in reality it just is a tool to speed up those very human beings.

Its not as cool as we thought. AI is a misnomer. LLM (aka big pile of spam,) seems more apt.

Some people are just now learning what LLMs really are.
