alt Hacker NewsOff meta: Are we tired of "one single product that solves everything" that every single AI product has became?
grep didn't try to also do what awk does, and jq and curl did exactly what they needed to do without wanting to become an OS (looking at you emacs), can we have that in the AI world? I hope/think we will, in a few years, once this century's iteration of FSF catches up.

I'm tired of endless LLM spam submissions from people who only use their accounts here to advertise and self promote.
Developing and serving GenAI models is highly unprofitable, so, no, we're not going to have that in the AI world.
Either those model developers & providers package them in as many services as possible so that they can be somewhat profitable, or they die, and we don't have model developers & providers anymore.
The thing that AI is best at is summarizing vast quantities of information. That means the most natural thing for an AI to do is be "the one tool to rule them all".
The more information it has access to, the more useful the answer can be. But that also means that it can answer all the questions.
