Hey, I have some magic beans to sell you.

I don’t think that the consumer LLMs that openai is pioneering is what need optimism.

AlphaFold and other uses of the fundamental technology behind LLMs need hype.

Not OpenAI



Pretty sure Alphabet projects don't need hype.


Hard disagree, in this case.

AlphaFold is a game changer for medical R&D. Everyone should be hyped for that.

They also are leveraging these same ML techniques for detecting kelp forest off the coast of Australia for preservation.

Alphabet isn’t a great company, but that does not mean the good they do should be ignored.

Much more deserving than chatgpt. Productifyed LLMs are just an attempt to make a new consumer product category.


They both do.


No.
