Why are we still talking like ai is majorly used for increasing shareholder value only? Its coding performance is top notch and quality is increasing at a rapid pace. It wasn't even half this good a year back. It even is useful for a subset of math problems.

People don't seem to be able to reconcile the fact that there is likely an overbuild and overspend on AI that may be inflating a bubble, and that AI is actually incredibly useful and getting really really good for certain tasks. Both camps are right, except for when they say the other is wrong.

  • By what measure is there an overbuild? Every metric I look at, shows inference unable to satisfy current demands.

    • I know companies paying for AI and not training people to use it, so spending is higher than usage on those.
