Yet it isn’t working. Consumers don’t want this shit. They’re intrigued by the idea, then mostly immediately bouncing off of it once they see what it can (or can’t) do. This software is being forced on people at scale by corporations desperate to seem futuristic without any real understanding as to why they need it, and whatever use cases may exist for Large Language Models are dwarfed by how utterly unprofitable this whole fiasco is.

It is extremely worrying that so few companies are willing to directly disclose their revenue from selling services that are allegedly revolutionary. Why? Salesforce says it closed “200 AI related deals” in its last earnings. How much money did it make? Why does Google get away with saying it has “growing demand for AI” without clarifying what that means? Is it because nobody is making that much money?

function rect(size) {
    for (let i = 0; i < size; ++i) {
        if (!i || i === size - 1) {
            console.log("#".repeat(size));
        } else {
            console.log("#" + " ".repeat(size - 2) + "#");
        }
    }
}
