Yes, and I agreed with every word of your previous comment with the exception of

It will ... be smarter than you

which I think is an extremely prevalent misconception about the state of AI that's worth debunking every time it is mentioned, and this misconception is due to the exact same causes as the point of this post: The CEOs are misrepresenting what this technology will scale to, in order to extract the maximum investment from unsophisticated investors. In doing so they're causing enormous turmoil in the labour markets that is affecting the lives of every white-collar worker.

Their narratives are harmful and they need to be called out.

The future of AI will be local. It will run on your phone and be smarter than you, and in fairly short order.

LLMs and the surrounding code that drives them ("harnesses") are so far from AGI that it will be decades before we see your prediction come true. We need not just one, but many more leaps forward in AI progress to achieve a level of AI that is capable of performing human-level reasoning and planning that will be "smarter than you" or me. If you have studied AI in the pre-LLM times you will have an understanding of the problems that need to be solved for general reasoning intelligence. We haven't solved any of those problems.

LLMs are a large step forward in the field of NLP, but that's it.

What's going on with the Fediverse that makes you put it in a list with these companies?

Is this concern trolling?

"Joined 8 hours ago" seems like a strange move for someone who is "pulling away from the fediverse."
