My view, as someone who was flat out "AI is a hype scam" up until around Jan this year. It was hype for a while, and forms of it are still very much hype, but the reality is catching up with the hype.
I.e the reality has so far been ~2 years behind the hype.
I'm not saying I like these companies, or that I think the economics of any of them is sane. Just saying LLM's are capable.
edit. For some context, I only use open weight models these days and rather hope that big closed firms go bust.

It's not new, but especially after the release of Opus 5.5 it's been sticking in my mind lately.
