Interesting take, but we've seen ChatGPT posts spammed since the last few days here, too. But no one seems to care that a lot of applications are just APIs to a proprietary model.
Closed AI models behind a SaaS API are somewhat ‘revolutionary’, with little to no application of any serious use-case other than summarization or bullshit generation. Even when it generates its output, there is a lot of skepticism and little belief in the trustworthiness of its results.
Other than that, there is nothing revolutionary or a breakthrough in any of this justifying the hype and has failed to be more trustworthy than todays search engines. This AI hype will collapse just as how the GPT-3 hype did and just as fast as the Clubhouse hype did.
What will permanently change everything is open source and transparent AI models that are smaller and more powerful than GPT-3 or even GPT-4.
