i think most things can be automated, but not everything
i think AI will just replace jobs with new jobs, and humans will continue with open-ended goal setting, and probably jobs where being human is necessary: responsibility and authenticity, so judges, politics, leaders, chefs, etc.
so in a way, the above commenter was correct, anything a programmer can automate, AI can do
It is a little bit suspicious that the big replacement didn't happen, yet.
If it was so valuable then AI companies would directly create valuable things, not just sell API tokens.
A proof like this is a good effort at trying to provide value directly, but still far away from real use.
When OpenAI cures cancer I'll accept the fate, but till then I'm still seeing a lot of gambling going on.
Reminds me of crypto. A lotta tokens. A lotta gambling. Very little supplanting of crypto from fiat. Very few use-cases that revolutionize society, etc.
LLMs are genuinely useful but the cult surrounding it makes it super sketchy.
Tech needs no anti-humanist and low empathy cults. It's a disgrace to the technology.
