    I don’t know. I think for them it’s an opportunity to draw more attention and investments. Especially now with how hot AI is at the moment.

    I think people are overreacting a bit.

      While ML does have legit uses in many specific cases, this whole “throw ‘AI’ into everything” hype/trend is just blockchain all over again. IMO, the ones who are overreacting are the ones swept up in the hype.

        You know there’s two sides to hype, right? Both the positive and the negative. Constantly doomposting about how any mention of AI, or LLM, or ML, or whatever your preference is, is a sign of being a waste of everyone’s time isn’t any better.

        Maybe instead of jumping from one extreme to another we can go ahead and have some kind of middle ground where we don’t jump down the throat of everything we only have the barest concept of because it looks kind of like something we aren’t fond of.
