These days, perhaps no phrase is on the tip of the business world’s collective tongue as much as “artificial intelligence.” With seemingly endless funding pouring into anything that remotely has to do with A.I., it was obviously time for the Good Work Investigative News Team to slap on their aftershave and get to the bottom of things.
For this investigation, we were pleased to be joined by Alex Konrad, Senior Editor at Forbes, Jason Abaluck, Professor of Economics at the Yale School of Management, and Kyla Scanlon, an independent educator, author, and creator.

I mean it's kind of dumb too, that's like asking whether new RTX feature is overhyped and then asking a bartender, an accountant and a basketball referee, but not anyone who does anything related to games or graphics. I think it would have been better to ask AI researchers or people who cover AI professionally.

@@hastyscorpion so let's ask an accountant who have no idea the new iPhone have even come out? And with all due respect you are comparing science journals with a low-class, specifically hype-dedicated rumors magazine. In that case it would have been closer to compare it to something like MKBHD or Wired or The Verge. Now that would have been a fairer comparison, but what you have there is a very disingenuous comaprison. I think its important to listen to the experts first.

“Not everyone should be developing the same thing side by side” If we were standing in 1995, then absolutely every company had to make a website over the next 15 years. That being said, not all companies need to reinvent HTML. Companies should use AI not reinvent it, and I think 95% of companies will see direct benefit from integrating AI over the next decade.

We don't need HTML, we already have gopher. Wait, that doesn't work. Gopher is the protocol, so: We don't need HTTP. It can't do half the things Xanadu can do. And we don't need HTML either. ROFF can do much more, with a much simpler parser. Eh, who cares about Neuromancer-style 3D visualisations of hypertext relationships in gopherspace, who cares about backlinks, versioning, or clients which are also authoring tools, when instead you can have thin clients running in a virtual machine defined by a monopoly. The thing about AI is that as long as there is no AGI, you will need to keep reinventing AI, in the same way that you need to write new software for new applications. HTML was a single application: Writing and rendering hypertext. AI can be applied to lots of different things, and each type of application requires a different AI architecture. With AGI you still need to train custom models for your applications, and that is still tricky because different applications may still require different types of AGI. But at least you don't have to design them from the ground up. It's more like using an existing scripting language than designing a custom domain specific language. The actual application of AI, as it is, is in using the models. And that is not as straightforward as using a command in the shell. ChatGPT has absorbed a lot of knowledge, to the point that it can answer questions, sometimes even correctly, but it is not a search engine. For image synthesis and editing you need a completely different type of AI again. And that's just the most hyped models right now. There is also speech recognition, which is usable, but still far from solved. There is face recognition, which works fairly well. There is speech synthesis which used to be solved until people began using AI for it. There is also style transfer in pictures and in music. But what doesn't get talked about in all this hype is how AI has made gene sequencing possible. The human genome project would have been impossible without AI, and now it is being applied to the whole biosphere. It is also applied to the stock market, but that doesn't get talked about much either. There will always be more that can be done with AI. But the sobering truth is that AI has been with us and in practical use for decades. The current hype is about trying to find something, anything, that can be monopolised. But computers are universal machines: What one can do, anyone can do. Just like how every computer can serve web pages, share files, compile code, and deliver e-mail. Or mine bitcoins in the webasm sourced from GitHub by an indirect dependency of the bootstrap code of a thin client running in your Chrome-based browser.

Would've liked to see you interview a computer scientist when talking to the expert. But I'm glad you didn't interview an "AI expert" (whatever that means) considering they'd probably have a billion dollars riding on whatever they say. As a nerd (and comp sci grad) myself, I think Stephen Wolfram's take on AI is the best. Revolutionary? Maybe. A new and helpful tool like Google was? Yes. And yea, I think AI is overhyped even before software developers. It's very similar to crypto. Eventually, it *could* be pretty revolutionary but for now it's just ripe for making some fat stacks.

The thing with AI is, it's not true that general AI is true, but we do have a thing that can calculate a bunch of bits out of existing bits and make the bunch of bits look very convincing as if they were new bits but not really.

All these tech terms constantly get thrown into a blender and come out as wild speculation that often kind of ignores that there isn't any guarantee that these things will keep linearly getting better forever.

True, so far it is not AGI, but that is quite a big goal and when it happens we might not even be alived to know it, in a very bad way. So its good that its not AGI yet considering we havent really solved the alignment problem. But thats exactly the problem AI is not as much as it is overhyped, its underhyped since it has a very big potential to progress rapidly which it already does and we might not be ready for what comes next.

Wait did he just go the whole video speculating about the value of generative ai and then not interview a single computer scientist or statistician who might actually have a chance of understanding the technology? Oh you mean that's why the question exists about whether or not it's over hyped, because nobody actually cares about the science anymore since it's too hard? Oh, ok well that sucks.

I doubt any of these AI companies are releasing their best work. They're probably only releasing the stuff that's "good enough" to get investors excited, but not too good as to alarm regulators. They would likely be improving the best version of their products in private without being weighed down by far-reaching regulation, waiting for the day when the hype has died down and AI work becomes normalised. Even if it becomes regulated, I doubt they would comply. Facebook has proven by example that a company can break the rules many times over, paying relatively small fines, and keeping most of their ill-gotten gains.

Im a theoretical physicist and have worked on several quantum computer AI projects. The answer is yes, AI is over hyped, unfortunately it can only ever output things we already know, it wont come up with a cure for cancer for example. It might be good for summarizing large blocks of text however.
