    Point 2 and 3 are legit, especially the part about not having a roadmap, a lot of what’s going on is pure improvisation at this point and trying different things to see what sticks. The grid is a problem but fixing it is long over due. In any case, these companies will just build their own if the government can’t get its head out of it’s ass and start fixing the problem (Microsoft is already doing this).

    The last two point specifically point to this person being someone that doesn’t know the technology just like what they are accusing others of being.

    It’s already replacing people. You don’t need it to do all the work, it will still bring about layoffs if it gives the ability for one person to do the job of 5. It’s already affecting jobs like concept artist and every website that used to have someone at the end of their chat app now has an LLM. This is also only the start, it’s the equivalent of people thinking computers won’t affect the workforce in the early 90s. It won’t hold up for long.

    The data point is also quit a bold statement. Anyone keeping abreast with the technology knows that it’s now about curating the datasets and not augmenting them. There’s also a paper that comes out everyday about new training strategies which is helping a lot more than a few extra shit posts from Reddit.

      Feels like you’re missing the point of the fourth bulletpoint. What they are saying, is not that AI is not taking people’s jobs, only that true potential comes from real humans that provide some quality that AI is not capable of truly replacing. It is being used to replace people with it’s inferior imitations.

      Not that your point is invalid, it absolutely is a valid and valuable criticism itself.
