Watch videos with OpenAI execs without sound. It’s quite obvious they’re making up their outlandish claims as they go along. It makes me kind of worried actually that there’s not much more gas in their particular tank and the whole “transformers can do everything” thing is reaching a plateau.

How does the first sentence lead to the second one here? How are you gleaning anything about that from watching a video with no sound?

And why is it obvious that they're making it up as they go?


Body language is a powerful signal that almost nobody can control.


Ok, I'll bite.

What specific body language would you look for that clearly shows someone is making an outlandish claim and what specific videos are you referring to?


OpenAI is not the only game in town. And Anthropic seems to think they've got another trick up their sleeve since their current leading model is only their mid-product line with plans to release the top tier Opus later this year.


LLMs are nothing more than statistical token prediction engines, feed it bullcrap and it will statistically provide bullcrap. There is no novel thought behind them, and they're marginally more complicated than your phone's keyboard Next Word Predictor.

So, yeah, they'd fit in place of an McKinsey alumni sitting in a C-Suite transparently.
