Fwiw LLMs are also revolutionary. There's currently more anti-AI hype than AI hype imho. As in there's literally people claiming it's completely useless and not going to change a thing. Which is crazy.

That’s an anecdote about intensity, not volume. The extremes on both sides are indeed very extreme (no value, replacing most white collar jobs next year).

IME the volume is overwhelming on the pro-LLM side.

		Yeah the conversation on both extremes feels almost religious at times. The pro LLM hype feels more disconcerting sometimes because there are literally billions if not trillions of dollars riding on this thing, so people like Sam Altman have a strong incentive to hype the shit out of it.

One sides extremes says LLM wont change a thing, the other sides extremes says LLM will end the world.

I don't think the ones saying it wont change a thing are the most extreme here.

		Luckily for humanity reality is somewhere in between extremes, right?
