That’s not true. There was not endless hype about flying to the moon when the first plane flew.
I didn't say there was endless hype, I gave an example of how one technology would never result in another... even if to a layperson it seems connected.
(The sky, and the moon, are "up")
People are well aware of the limits of LLMs.
Surely you mean "Some people". Because the point in this thread is that there is a lot of hype, and FOMO, and "OMG AGI!" chatter running around LLMs. Which will never ever make AGI.
You said you didn’t comprehend why there was hype and I explained why there was hype.
Then you made an analogy and I said your analogy is irrelevant because nobody thinks LLMs are agi nor do they think agi is coming out of LLMs this coming year.
