This area - so-called 'AI' - has a long history of malinvestment.

And remarkable that you cite Microsoft's involvement as some sort of standard of significance. A company that has a long history of non-innovation, alongside its disgraceful history of suffocating and extinguishing actual innovation. Founded by one of the most remarkably unimaginative and predatory individuals in the software industry. I'd suggest seeing Microsoft investing in anything is only a good sign of a potential future rort (Gates' whole history of making money).



It's remarkable that you skipped past "companies from every category" and jumped straight into your ramblings about Microsoft. I don't care about Microsoft, I used them as an example to disprove your bollocks claim about GPT-x not being useful. As I said, take a look at the list of their current partners. One option would certainly be that you're the only one with insight and all these companies are led by morons with no vision or foresight or the alternative could be that you're just wrong and too egotistic to admit that a piece of technology is better than you in many aspects.


Suggest you lay off the personal attacks and review the site's Guidelines [1]. I'd already passed over and chosen to ignore your opening attack in your first comment but you've ramped it up with this reply.

Finally, maybe rather than just saying that 'all sorts of entities are investing in this hoopla', try to make an actual case yourself as to what the value case in this technology is. We should try to think for ourselves here, not just follow the (investing) herd.
