I think that also means it will get absorbed by “IT” and become another technology we take for granted.

The whole ML hype reminds me of the time when Google Search was amazing and everybody was hyped about it. Companies would flock to buy search black boxes from Google and put them on their own private networks so they could index everything and give them their own little “google search” for their intranet. And of course those boxes phoned home to Google but people were so smitten with the technology they didn’t care.

Nowadays search technology is a dime a dozen, Google have ruined their Search with ads and chasing the perfect relevance to the brink of nonsense, and have also come out as one of the largest data predators in the world. Nobody would be dumb enough to trust a Google black box on their intranet today, right?.. but giving all your data to a LLM company? Sign me up!
