It’s not about safety. It’s about demand not being there to match the money they are pouring into supply. They overshot the demand and need a way to justify it. The number of people who use AI l...

The demand is there. They were never thinking they would be netflix and sell everyone a sub. Their messaging the whole time is "AI will put everyone out of work" which is a business dog-whistle for "replace all your workers with AI". That is happening. Every white collar business across the country is genuinely trying their hardest to teach their employees to use AI and anything that is once offloaded to AI is forever being done with AI. That's recurring demand for these companies. Nothing ordinary users do with AI is really comparable to this. Most people either just use it for searching, which every search engine is providing for free, or the occasional user who is abusing the subscription and maxing it, but never going over and turning on API billing.

Consumers don't matter. It's mainly a producer good and that's ok. Many valuable industries are. Crude oil is not anything any consumer has ever bought and yet it keeps many large countries afloat and wealthy.

*predicts the next token* The news: Omfg the world is about to end

The majority of people are as smart as an LLM. They don't actually think, their reasoning is literally just predicting the next token. They genuinely can not form a logical if A, then B, then C chain. During most of their daily life they can present the illusion of logical reasoning, but like an LLM, it falls apart if you ever get past small talk. They can not catch logical contradictions in truth coded phrasing. That is the most basic test that is used to separate a reasoning LLM model from a pure next word generating one. They lack the knowledge of an LLMs training data, and if they are arrogant they will hallucinate complete bullshit facts without looking it up, far worse than opus on low. A lot of them also have a dogshit context window. They are unable to keep the relevant facts in a given conversation in their head.

Most of media is staffed by these people. They write news articles indistinguishable from an LLM for a living. When these people see AI, they rightfully see that it does everything they do better than them, but since they were conditioned to believe that their obedience was a sign of intelligence, they underestimate the people more intelligent then them who are actually the ones getting this tech to produce the amazing results it does.

A very basic test, which lots of people are trying every day, is to let an agent loose and having it try to make money online. As far as I know, no one has successfully gotten a positive return from this.

Think about that. Not even the smartest agents can do any form of work worth as much as their own token price, without a human to lead it. This is much like these midwit journalists. They can work at multi billion dollar media companies and produce content that makes millions, but almost none of them would make even minimum wage if they tried doing anything on their own. Of course they feel threatened by AI, while the smart people of every income bracket enjoy its output.

Hate these companies that make up "feature" wording to denote something that should be a stat.

Why the fuck your screwdriver labelled as "extended reach"? Just say it's 10 inches long.
