A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

And no one at wall street bothered to ask actual engineers of the actual likelihood of all of these crazy promises being made. Ask engineers and they'd give an optimistic and realistic approach and could guide investors on what is possible and what isn't. But nooo, gotta love the hype cycle instead
As someone who's been through the Bay Area/ Silicon Valley Startup gauntlet, I can assure you that there are plenty of engineers who are deep in the AI koolaid.
I think the other commenter was implying that independent engineers be consulted.
