The thing is, whether the "elites" want to admit it or not, technological progress has significantly slowed down. The GPUs that run these meme models are already expensive as fuck (in the $30-40K range). Open AI needs to charge $100 a month for ChatGPT plus just to break even. Microsoft is investing over $100B for a single supercomputer/datacenter project that's going to be 25x bigger than the biggest datacenters and will probably be delayed as it's going to be completely off grid.
Even if they manage to make significant advancements, which isn't a given, their subscriptions are going to be so ridiculously overpriced, that they won't be competitive. Also, due to the end of Moore's law, prices will take forever to drop.
Then we also have to account for the competency crisis, which is getting exponentially worse.
They're busying proclaiming the AI retardation as a "Second Industrial Revolution" because they desperately need one to make up for all the money printing.
I remember a decade ago when the "Internet of Things" concept evolving into its final form, "smart everything" was going to be the new "tech revolution". I'm barely seeing it.
I remember when we were supposed to all be riding around in Google's driverless taxis. That was supposed to happen in 2013.
Before that, the big revolution in transport was supposed to be the Segway. That's right, everyone was going to give up cars and ride around on gay sideways scooters.
