Agree about the first part of what you said. Lost me on the “value” of NFTs

The problem with good use is that the salesman didn't sell good uses or develop because they can get more selling "AGI."

I wish more people would see that the binary between 'weak'/specific use AI and AGI is better blurred. The best solutions seem to be in between these two concepts.

The way people market AI is the stupidest thing. They either talk about, oh here, this will write your work excuses, or hey, we're building a god. There's no in between. The most usefulness that we could get from AI is from open source specific uses. Should be honest simple and acknowledge its flaws

Having a product that can explain its own manual to you, that is 1 of millions of uses. A private journal which organizes itself, also huge use. Step by step learning a hobby? It's awesome for assisting with projects or constructing lesson plans in a medium you've know nothing about! Etc etc.

Being honest doesn't get you $500bn in investment unfortunately.

yeah I think that honestly open AI is at fault for a lot of stupidity around LLMS
