The backlash against AI is growing. I'm not sure they realise how quickly and I'm not sure how effective it's going to be, but it's going to be a thing in 2025.

Given the emerging computational arguments (and even theorems) about the fundamental energy cost of further scaling up LLM type training, there is a serious debate to be had. Which will hopefully at the very least redirect AI research.
I agree that that is the most likely outcome. The downside of them selling so much bullshit for so much money is that when it does go, they’ll have scorched their own sandpit, so to speak. Hence “at least”.
Maybe. But there really are some valuable things in this wave. And not all the things people think. I’m personally more excited about #CausalML than #LLM! No one knows about CML but it will be remembered as a product of this wave.
Yes I’m afraid all the #aihype has drawn money away from more traditional #neuroscience research. Seems like neuroscientists have to use industry tech like #deeplearning and #genai to get funding. Even when it’s not sensible. Hopefully #aibubble bursting won’t affect basic research 🤞🏻
