Well, he got his share of people that would like to suck his dick. Like you, for example.

No. What Google has is a clevery crafted lie, because they pretend that these steps are within reach. And you fell for it.

Hahahaha, no. Also note the the hype has now been running for bout 2 years and nothing even remotely like your deranged "prediction" has come true.

Should you actually have attempted satire, my apologies.

There is genuine progress, but it is not world-changing at all. Somewhat better search, better bullshit and better bullshit removal, essentially. The latter two will only excite bureaucrats. Also note that this AI hype is one in a series and all ones before followed the same script: Make bombastic claims, some people get rich, what actually results is something but not that much and nowhere near the claims made.

Well, I can tell from the sample of this writing that he is either an idiot or a liar, maybe both.

... by recent Programming 102 students tried ChatGPT on some really simple code (game of life in about 40 lines of Python) and GhatGPT completely failed. "Reasoning" models will not do any better. The fact of the matter is that LLMs are really not any better that a somewhat improved search. And that falls flat on its face at pretty low complexities, and there is no way to do better. If the model is specialized, it will get a bit more depth given good (and hence expensive) training data, but it will still fail at laughably low complexities.

Found the idiot...

Indeed. And given that most people do not remember the past ...

Not only a theory at this time. Good for them, who wants to work for a known NAZI...

As long as he kept out of it, things worked reasonably well. Since he has been firing experts he does not like, not so much anymore. Idiot with money is still an idiot.

Indeed. And they screwed it up time and again. Greedy assholes.

At least when Microsoft makes such a claim. The only way to get anything even close is to leave Microsoft behind and go for actual quality.

This is a temporary crisis only for the publishers that actually add value. Because AI cannot do that. For the rest, nothing of value will be lost.

No. Because the facts will not go away, no matter how much people like you desire that. Facts kind of do that.

Indeed. Failure on the level of a whole species. That is special. And no, denial will not fix this, no matter how much a lot of completel morons believe that.
