  Keyboard substituted the wrong word, fixed.

  Oh the CS job market may just be more persistently toast. Yes there have been layoffs attributed to AI, however I think a lot of those businesses were kind of itching to do those layoffs anyway. There was way overhiring in the security in general, plus when the AI bubble pops it’ll drag the test if the tech sector with it.

  AGI might be just around the corner, or it might be indefinitely far off, but either way I don’t think “just more LLM” is going to get there, and that seems to be all the AI industry is really equipped to handle at the moment.

  Ironically, getting to AGI might take a bubble pop to stop the current LLM architectures from just sucking up all the resources to let other approaches breathe a little.

  More practically, I’d have expected to see more engaged robotics, but it seems all the money is being spent on pure online AI approaches.

  Seemed a likely outcome. On the way to being late, there were stories where basically they spent ungodly amounts of money in an attempt and then scrapped it because it wasn’t actually any better. And that this happened multiple times.

  So if they were truly stuck, what to do? They could admit they were stuck, and watch the economic collapse as investors realize they were mistaken on how far along the technology curve things were, or they could market the hell out of GPT-5 and pretend it’s amazing and hope enough suckers and latecomers to LLM buy into that narrative that it carries through. Like Sam Altman acting ‘scared’ of what GPT-5 is going to be, “what have we done?” in a very melodramatic way like he’s Oppenheimer or something, likening it to the Death Star (all in all, a very ‘wtf’ situation, if it were really as dangerous as you say, you seem awfully eager to get it going).

  So we have an incremental iteration with some good, some bad, and perhaps overall better, but in the context of the ungodly investment in the LLM sector, it’s way way less than would should reasonably expect.

  Yeah, it was the whole point.

  When Trump first said that, I wondered why the hell he’s talking about Musk asking for a position title that never existed, and then he tweeted out some BS AI gen of him with the title ‘DOGE’ on a nameplate in front of him.

  He basically is a 13 year old who never grew up.
