Don’t like porn? Then don’t use it. Forcing your personal views on others by banning things you don’t agree with is bullshit.

where do you think you live - some “free country?” you should move somewhere like china where citizens have more freedom than US of A… :)

Would you say alcohol is banned if a liquor store that was against carding customers would have to lock its doors to avoid violating laws about selling to minors?

Damn, this article is describing me.

I’ve always been an eloquent speaker in meetings but recently it seems like I can’t respond at all, I have these thoughts and then when I go to speak nothing comes out. I’ve began to doubt my skills and abilities even though I’ve been a senior dev for almost 20 years.

The past several weeks I get in front of my screen at work and just stare, sometimes for hours… it’s as if I have waking sleep paralysis or something.

Everything feels fake, like I’m observing myself from the outside and the person I’m seeing is someone else.

Finally, someone else on the internet that remembers using Hotdog! Good old Sausage Software… Thanks for the nostalgia hit.

Is there any evidence that supports this statement?

Progression GPT1-2-3-4 in last 5 years, with no indication of any slowdown in the near future.

there are plenty of signs that it is slowing down

including current versions quality degradation, unprofitable business models (it's still too damn expensive to be covered by your average 19$/m subscription) etc.

There's no indication that the pace of innovation for LLMs in the near future will be anywhere near what it has been in the past few years.

Is there an indication it won't be?

We simply don't know what it will be. Growth in nature does not continue at the same pace forever, and eventually the speed of innovation will taper off.

It's a common phenomena, described with an S-curve: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function). We can't know if LLMs are already there, or not yet, we'll only know after the fact.

OK, so it is reasonable to assume that the chance the progress will continue in the next two years is about 50%, would you agree? If so, why are people in this thread dismiss my concerns as unreasonable?
