    I think LLMs and generative AIs are a really interesting technology with many potential applications in the future and even today.

    But it is ridiculous how tech bros and marketing are pushing and overselling the capabilities of a technology that is yet in its early childhood. Infancy is already past as it knows basic motor functions.

    And it is m funny when these companies publish their ambitious attempts and hilarious failures like this article right here. It reminds me of a more funny and diverse and geeky internet when nerds got money from investors to do whatever with a domain name. Maybe it is still there, behind the wall of marketing execs.

      They want to have a splashy “TEST ROCKET EXPLOSION!!!” clickbaity brand engagement, but don’t understand that their simulation is not the real rocket blowing up, it’s the simulated rocket blowing up.

      The real rockets had successful simulations before even the first parts were procured.

      Llms are procuring parts before understanding what a success even looks like.
