That’s Capitalism. AI is the new growth frontier, so it’s all you are hearing about. Seems like LLMs and generators are genuine innovations. But don’t lose sight that these innovations are driven by the Capitalist need to concentrate more surplus value into fewer hands. This is no different than programable looms, etc. of the past, except now they will try to automate immaterial/“intellectual” work. It remains to be seen if these technologies will succeed at that, but the Capitalists are compelled to try, and we will be forced to live with the wreckage.
