The bubble is bursting, i hope Nvidia implodes in a never before seen spectacular fashion.
You are being overzealous, the bubble ain’t gonna pop for a long while imo
Nah the funding is starting to dry up already. Big players including microsoft are cancelling plans.
I don’t think the bubble will pop as long as “Ai” keeps advancing at the pace it is. LLMs, text to photo, and text to video models are getting exponentially better year over year. I really don’t think the hype train is going to slow down until the rate of progress slows as well, so far there aren’t an indications the rate of progress is going to slow.
Wild guess here that I’m sure you and others will disagree with, even when the bubble “pops” it won’t really be a pop but more of a downturn that doesn’t actually hurt any of the big players significantly.
Only time will tell, it will certain be interesting to watch as an outsider no-matter what.
Edit: As many have pointed out, using the word exponential was incorrect. Although I still stand by that I don’t think the bubble’s going to pop anytime soon, and these models are getting significantly better year over year.

it is 2025 how are you still saying this shit
This article is literally about the fact that progress has stagnated…
There are clearly fundamental issues with the approach they have been using for LLMs. There is no new data left, the entire internet has been scraped already. All thats left is incremental improvements in the way they process the data.

OpenAI is stagnating, and has been for at least a few months, now. The AI industry as a whole has only continued to accelerate, especially with the new blood that is DeepSeek coming into play.
I hear ethereum is going to solve all of bitcoin’s problems
Wait until we get the Strategic Ape Reserve, then you’ll see!
The Information’s Dealmaker newsletter is talking today about downrounds in AI venture funding
In my experience they’ve significantly tailed off over the past year, exponential growth would mean the amount they get better per unit time increases over time. What has gotten better is our ability to run the same level of things on cheaper hardware with less power, again just in my limited experience. (Also this is not the definition of exponential growth, just a property of it. Polynomial growth has the same property)
LLMs, text to photo, and text to video models are getting logarithmically better year over year.
Investors poured completely insane amounts of money into thd endless money pit that is ClosedAI. then they realize betting everything on one horse was really stupid, since they have zero competitve advantage.
now they try to get as much loot off the sinking ship as possible lmao
they’ll probably exit scam soon
it’s been an ongoing exit scam
OpenAI buys services from a pile of Altman’s other portfolio companies

which reminds me of one of my actual favourite parts of the bayfuckers playacting building companies: how absolutely self-cycling a lot of the funding ends up being. shartups burning fucking piles of money on other, also-VC-funded, shartups. totally normal and healthy way for money to flow.
it’s not startup gambling if it’s embezzlement
in the past I have worked in the product cycle at a silicon valley company a little bit and I just can’t imagine anyone I met ever getting to the next step being “tell the customers the new product is marginally better at 15-30x the current price” and then actually doing that instead of cancelling releases, fire-drill meetings all week to change paths as soon as possible, etc. unless they already did that?
“bonkers” is right.
What’s amazing is how long it’s been at an insane level of hype and there isn’t a single product that’s very popular.
There’s niche products, there’s products that a lot of people use sometimes or that they don’t mind but there’s nothing in existence that a lot of people care about. Much less one a lot of people pay for.
The largest voice about the whole thing is how terrible it is. It’s just bonkers.
Former OpenAI researcher Andrej Karpathy wrote on X that GPT-4.5 is better than GPT-4o but in ways that are subtle and difficult to express. “Everything is a little bit better and it’s awesome,” he wrote, “but also not exactly in ways that are trivial to point to.”
