I agree. I remember a year ago some a submission on this forum by Sabrina where she was evaluating LLMs on SAT math problems. The post was called like “ChatGPT-4o vs. Math”. I thought it was pretty insightful, but now that post is deleted from her blog and it seems like the blog as a whole is leaning into attracting people who are nontechnical and want to use it to generate social media content. Weird vibe in the comments of her posts and videos too.
Hype is like catnip for them. They've been around for a while, many of the OG AI YouTubers didn't know anything about it when they started to pretend to educate.
I mean, the grifters have started it. They grifted for way too much money without ANY plan on how to actually get money back to the investors. Including the dubious benefits, just promising a "quick fix".
That is a bit over the top, but the core statement kind of stands.
I'm the writer of the blog post. I don't sell ai courses, consulting, coaching, or anything like that. But I do use claude code to help me build my SaaS app as a bootstrapped solopreneur. I also sold an AI startup in early 2021, which I founded back in 2014 when the hyped term was "Big Data". I've been around a few hype cycles now..
Maybe it does have some valuable content but I will just close it.
