At this point, I'm not sure it will crash anymore. Reasonably it should have crashed months ago! Why didn't it?

Everybody knows it will crash.

Some very powerful people are going to lose a lot of money when it crashes.

They are doing everything they can to postpone the crash, or scam others into taking the fall.

Starting to look like the nuclear fusion energy thing. "It's going to be ready in 20 years!", they said for 50 years.

AI is good at a few things that have real world value. It recently dropped 200+ mathematical proofs that are real and genuine but are the lowest hanging fruit - they're the least creative unsolved problems in maths (now solved), ones that could be solved with enough time and work. Not a proof of intelligence, just a proof of computational power/duration.

That sort of large "solution space" exploration is stuff mathematicians might not have the time/patience for, but LLMs can do.

Likewise, producing content faster than humans can is another thing LLMs are really good at, with some reports already saying upwards of 50% of new content posted to the Internet is now LLM generated (dead internet theory).

LLMs have also recently taken over game development, and gotten to the point that they're making full 3D scenes, and even videogames.

...and if you haven't heard, a team recently duplicated the Adobe Creative Suite of programs in about a week. Vibe coding in Rust with lots of Claude Opus.

Yep, it looks like "AI" is here to stay.

The biggest concerns are probably: it being able to "flood the zone" of content pushing certain ideas/narratives. Either from tech billionaire fascists, or foreign influnce campaigns.

So determining, monitoring, and countering any biases from that is probably going to be a huge challenge.
