They do, but companies won't sell them what they want. There's a whole subreddit of cat ladies pretending they're married to chatGPT, but then they shut down 4o and the 5x models won't do ERP.
The internet was a "bubble" too with the dotcom boom. That doesn't mean it was not successful, just lots of bad investments and poor allocation of money.
Kimi2.5 is open source and performs as well as Anthropic’s claude.
What normally happens when rich companies have no protection from competition is - mass lobbying for “safetyism” rules that free companies cannot comply with.
(See Facebook’s Nick Clegg hired to do just that)
step1- expect to see articles from our state media : “anthropic keeps your kids safe from transing themselves”
step2- mandatory ID for anyone who uses AI to “keep kids safe” (it will be largely old people’s fears of youth)
step3- Only government supervised AI - to keep kids safe
Too many companies competing at the moment. Some of them will be pushed out. They all want to become dominant names in AI to prevent that from happening to them.
The actual impact of the crash when the bubble we're in pops could be fairly mild, but it's still impossible for them all to survive.
LLMs are natural improvement over regular search engines that are overglorified and price gouged. If subscriptions were not $20+/month then I could see people use 2 or 3 at the same time.
The main reason LLMs are an improvement on traditional search engines is that LLMs have the patience to sit there and run dozens of queries to try to find the information the engines refuse to show you because they're crippled on purpose by Indians now.
I've been wondering for a time now if the AI that is available to the public pales in comparison to the AI that the government is being shown or what the companies have access to behind closed doors.
Something about the whole AI situation feels incredibly unnatural.
AI is over saturated and a novelty right now. The bubble will be forced to burst eventually.
Sums it up perfectly. I'll say there's also a lot of greedy investors trying to strike it rich pumping it up.
Nobody wants to pay for chatbots
We want to pay for Will Smith eating spaghetti

Aye. In a way they became a baseline tool to use much like adblockers became baseline anti-vir software.
Ai has really regressed in recent months EXCEPT gemini which right now is even crushing chatgpt.
New chatgpt = censored to death, loses tracks often, spouts nonsense, but does the best research
Claude = clearly cleaned so they would be ready for the IPO, it's trash for anything but coding now
AI = really progressed in terms of analysis and discussion.
Its either deepseek or gemini at the top now.
Kimi is up there too, and it has a much different personality than DeepSeek which makes both of them useful for different reasons.

On the tech side of things, its selling but all the buyers are buying a promise. They aren't buying products.
The more they spend, the more potential for getting higher bailout packages from the government when the bubble pops.
