Look, you can declare that it is a scam all you like. Trumpet statements like this one: "Large language models still hallucinate, and they still make boneheaded errors; they still lack a proper concept of reality. They often produce workslop. A recent survey called The Remote Labor Index found that they could only do 2.5% of human tasks, and that is a massive overestimate"

It won't convince me because I HAVE BEEN USING IT, and IT HAS ACTUALLY MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE.

Hype (whether positive or negative) can be extremely powerful, but eventually it loses out to reality. It is certainly true that there are some people who have overhyped AI. But it is not true that it "was a scam" or is anything less than revolutionary.
