    As someone who studied CS at uni for 3 years I saw first hand how there’s plenty of idiots in this field. Two of my classmates identified as Nazis and thought that the holocaust didn’t happen, besides a significant chunk leaning to the right more generally.

    There’s plenty of really smart people working in the field of AI, but there’s also plenty of people who just think they’re smart.

    We the People Who Work In Tech, welcome you to the World of bullshit meisters making insane stuff up around your domain expertise area.

    We’ve been living in it since at least the late 90s.

    Just because you had a thought, doesn’t mean you should write a TED talk on it.

    Business homps trying to do math with no understanding or background smacks of clergy trying to do philosophy or athletes composing a symphony, sure you can try it but practically nobody is interested in your uninformed amateur gibberish nonsense.

    Are those AI evangelists real? Or are they products or their products?

    They sound like the latter to say the least.

      There’s currently a ton of hype around LLMs, so companies are willing to spend a lot of money. And where there’s money to be made, scammers aren’t far away.

    You can suggest that. It shows the world that you’re an idiot, but you are technically allowed to suggest it.
