i mean it's more like
"AI can solve this one problem, but it needs X, Y, Z, because it's not a omnipotent god entity"
"I tried it without any of those things and it didn't work - this is worthless tech!"
I don't know if more accurate calorie counting using AI exists - but it's like being upset that the screwdriver isn't gluing wood. AI is far more than frontier LLMs.
In this case, what is the 'X, Y, Z' that the apps are providing that the model is not?
> "AI can solve this one problem, but it needs X, Y, Z, because it's not a omnipotent god entity"
0 advertisements from openai or anthropic say this. They all sell you an omnipotent god entity.
There are plenty of positions on the spectrum from “omnipotent God entity” and “Casio SL-300SV”. What does the current valuation of LLMaaS companies represent though?
LLMs are certainly not worthless, that’s a strawman in the same way my statement “AI will solve all of our problems” is a strawman. The question of their worth is being explored.
“AI is a black box that can solve problems”. Which problems? How consistently? At what cost? How quickly?
