That will reduce them to a kind of middle man, and will bolster the power and income of the media maffia even more. Then they will drop their law suits, but OpenAI will be vastly less valuable. > head for the fallout shelter,) "hallucinations" are still essentially > unsolvable given the way the thing works, and it still can't do *half* > of what they keep promising it will Real Soon Now. Hallucinations will probably have to be "fixed" by either hiring africans to double check answers, sorry "fact check", and then store those so that similar queries are redirected to those canned answers. This will increase their cost even more, as well as reduce them to more of a search engine. Actually, my biggest use of AI is as a more "smooth" search engine for things where 100% corrects facts do not matter that much, that is... entertainment reading, or subjects where I know the basics, so any hallucination would stick out. > Ed Zitron - https://www.wheresyoured.at/ - has done a lot of solid > writing on this in the last year or two.

I wonder how much it will pull down the stock market? The good thing here is that they are not listed! So if it would crash pre-listing, that might mitigate the ripple effects on stock markets. I fear they will try to list it, to throw the lipstick painted pig onto the public, as well as letting mgmt and developers cash out, and then wait for the crash. =(
