Who said anything about Microsoft working on them? But yes, Microsoft is probably also working on those…

And that is exactly the point. Don’t blanket bitch about AI when you only mean a tiny subset of AI, that happens to have become a fad.

Ok let’s say

Cars <-> cybertruck 

Same as:

AI <-> LLMs 

If Tesla makes a shitty car, does that make all other cars from other manufacturers that have come before it and will come after it also shitty? Why do you say: AI is shit when LLM’s and the like are shit, and not cars are shit when the Cybertruck is shit?

(Ok not a perfect example because Cybertrucks aren’t as popular, but you get the idea).

And there is not just a handful of good applications. They’re just not consumer models and are used in certain fields as I mentioned before. As a whole, the number of ML algorithms still vastly outnumber the LLM’s and the like. That may shift now everyone and their mother is making an “AI”. But for now, let’s stick to the facts.

This is the technology community after all…
