Absolutely. So much noise.

"There’s an AI for that" lists 44,172 AI tools for 11,349 tasks. Most of them are probably just wrappers…

As Cory Doctorow uses enshittification for the internet, for AI/LLM there should be something like a dumbaification.

It reminds me late 90s when everything was "World Wide Web". :)

Gold rush it is.

This is just the Blockchain and Web3 (NTF) crazes all over again on the surface.

Every single grifter from those times is slapping AI on everything that moves or doesn't move.

But the difference is that the blockchain was (and still is) a solution looking for a problem. LLMs can solve actual problems today.
