But then again, all of this is a hype machine cranked up till the next one needs cranking.
It does feel like we're marching toward a day when "software on tap" is a practical or even mundane fact of life.
But, despite the utility of today's frontier models, it also feels to me like we're very far from that day. Put another way: my first computer was a C64; I don't expect I'll be alive to see the day.
Then again, maybe GPT-5 will make me a believer. My attitude toward AI marketing is that it's 100% hype until proven otherwise -- for instance, proven to be only 87% hype. :-)
I’m not sure this will be game changing vs existing offerings
Don’t get me wrong, this is all very impressive tech. But my first experience with GPT-5 is a presentation with incorrect charts and a game that looks shiny but has serious flaws.
GPT-5 doesn't seem to get you there tho ...
(Disclaimer: But I am 100% sure it will happen eventually)
"Fast fashion" is not a good thing for the world, the environment, the fashion industry, and arguably not a good thing for the consumers buying it. Oh but it is good for the fast fashion companies.
