One of the infuriating things I’ve seen in the industry in a bunch of cases. Folks working on valuable things getting pulled away to work on chatbot. Not even to try to make the chatbot game changing, just to make it more popular.
Also, there was pressure in the industry to “be green”; to be efficient. That is all so far out the window now too…
I hate how LLMs have co-opted the term AI. Google was using AI for this just a different and I’d argue better technique. It’s super frustrating to see other AI approaches be totally discarded just for everyone to put all their chips on LLMs being the ‘right’ approach

Google knows AI will not cure diseases. They have services for pharma for two years now and no one is finding it useful, despite the cost.
