Coffeezilla asks: “Is the LAM a Scam? Down the rabbit hole we go.”
There’s a 5th type - those of us who understand that the technology itself isn’t a scam and has valid uses (even if many “AI” startups actually are scams), but think there isn’t that much potential left with current methods due to the extreme amount of data and energy required (which seems to be supported by some research lately, but only time will tell).
That’s in line with type 4. I guess it needs subtypes like 1 and 2 or whatever.
I agree with your view there, but also believe that it won’t take much to get from where we are to where we begin to have novel solutions/approaches to things like quantum computation, superconductors, cold fusion, nuclear fusion, et al.
Should that happen, I would disagree. Until some other stronghold gives way, I agree.
Quantum computers seem most plausible.
