What percent of the population currently uses Ai? 5%?

This is a technology that will reach 90% usage for almost everything people do, so there is still so much more growth to go.

Everybody already uses AI, it's being shoved down our throats. You literally cannot use Google or Amazon without AI nonsense popping up. People don't seem too happy about it though. I can't say that these features have improved my Amazon or Google experiences. In fact, in the case of the latter, the experience has only gotten worse as they've injected more AI.

And you forgot to mention Apple Intelligence!

i ll give you the opposite viewpoint. 90% people are using AI because it is being forcefully shoved into google, amazon, microsoft etc. Most AI models offer little value at the moment and once the novelty wears off, even a real AI breakthrough will create aversion amongst the masses, this ll cause a huge crash

Eh, I don’t see it. People will try the new ChatGPT killer for sure, especially if all the first gen issues were fixed (lack of current world knowledge, hallucinations etc). I think the bubble is due a big pop but I don’t think it’s going to be that huge of a crash unless China somehow catches up

there have been enough GPT killers in the last 2 years that even if someone made an actual GPT killer, the level of interest among people is going to be low. Their first reaction would be like "oh no not another AI marketer"

I just don’t see how anyone can conclude that current LLMs offer little value. Anyone who uses the internet can find value in LLMs

I think eventual 90% (more like 100%) usage is already priced in to nVidia's valuation.

I sincerely hope not
