Ah, some interesting technology news. Let's read about what new developments are being made-

Oh, wait, Elon Musk is involved. I hate technology! Emerald mines and cave rescue submarines!

It's more like "idiot billionaire builds bigger shiny gadget for a non specific purpose"

Like what's the problem being solved here?

Like what's the problem being solved here?

Training AIs.

🙄 this is interesting? Is there no new application or topology here?

If it's just "more power vroom" this is only valuable for entertainment.

yeah because if musk wasn't involved, lemmy's community always loves news on the latest ai hype cycle

Ah yes, the wrong kind of technology.

If it's a "hype cycle" I guess it'll be going away aaaaaany day now.

Ah yes, the wrong kind of technology.

what point do you think you're making here?

it's /c/technology, not "/c/unquestionedpraisefortechnology"

If it's a "hype cycle" I guess it'll be going away aaaaaany day now.

my guy even people within the ai r&d sphere acknowledge that it's a hype cycle

I think maybe you meant to link to AI Winter (which that link has a link to down at the bottom) as that article doesn't really support your point (that people within AI acknowledge it has hype cycles) at all, there's nothing about AI directly in it, although it does serve a refutation that 'hype cycle' means it'll go away; if that's what you meant your sentence was a bit odd.

the citation is because the only way you could claim ai isn't in a hype cycle at the moment is if you don't know that that's a defined term within tech spaces
