Ed Zitron,

He gets things others are missing.

He also misses things others are getting.

I think it’s nice to have a voice criticizing the fundraising aspect of these companies. I do think we’ll see at least one of them blow up. The technology is obviously useful though. Hundreds of thousands of developers have already changed the way they were working for decades. Some of the criticisms that the technology doesn’t work at all go a bit too far.

I agree on this, but it doesn't mean that there is an automatic benefit on business side ... and business is what is paying our wages & tokens!

We are still in the discovery phase, but we don't know yet if there will be enough return to repay those hundreds of billions already invested and other few trillions that will be invested in the near future.

It's not enough for it to "work". It has to work in a way that is affordable and cost effective for widespread use.

Otherwise, people/companies will use it sparingly or not at all. Anything less than widespread, "universal" use is a big problem for those investing $ trillions in AI.

Would you be able to quantify how useful it is? Trillions are at stake here, so you’ll need to get specific.
