Don't forget that before "AI" there was crypto. Same attitude among their promoters.

So someone who isn't already invested can genuinely draw the conclusion they're similar and not worth the time.

Edit: oh wait

>because some marketing people are over-promising

all "AI" marketing people that I've seen. Ok 98%. And all my LLM info is from what gets posted on HN.

> I will retaliate by choosing to believe false things

"I will retaliate by cataloguing them as pathological liars and not waste my time with them any more".



But it’s not the marketers building the products. This is like saying “because the car salesman lied about this Prius’ gas mileage, I’ll retaliate by refusing to believe hybrids are any better than pure ICE cars and will buy a pickup”.

It hurts nobody but the person choosing ignorance.


No, I'm afraid it's like 90% of the Prius owners who post something about their car post fake gas mileages.

And 100% of the marketers of course.


I disagree, but even conceding the point — why would that make you choose to believe falsehoods just to stick it to the liars?
