> So I guess "A.I." is the new buzzword for how we describe all digital technology going forward
I wonder if any companies are getting deals on compute for making a big splashy deal out of the part ML played in these processes. Kind of a B2B meets Twikstogrube Influencer marketing strategy, but instead of companies having cachet because a bunch of social media followers find them appealing, they actually manifest things in the physical world. That is a big hole in the Generative AI company sales pitch for a) non-early-adopter potential customers, and b) many others looking uneasily at the kind of resources they're tearing through when the only tangible things they've seen from it are a pitches for features they never asked for and don't care about, and very concerning faked images and videos for extortion, bullying, porn, and political shit. I'm not saying those things are all its good for, but the communication about the real-world value of this stuff has been pretty lacking, and the drawbacks have been understandably shouted from the rooftops, so they're probably preeeetttyyy thirsty for stories like this.
