I agree that the capabilities are overhyped, but I feel like the way you described it undersells it too. I think it's a genuinely new and revolutionary capability.

Ok, but only because all my examples are so old to us. When hydrolics and internal combustion engines were first combined it was also revolutionary. The age of machines had arrived. This was tech. Now it's nothing to us.

Its funny, I'm not trying to undersell anything just push back a bit. Which usually means I get accused by both extremes of having a dumb take.

Also, I was responding to the AGI part. That's massively hype. And we can see this as we have been 3/months away for years now.

Even in the field of mathematics?

Harder for me to comment on that, but even if AI isn't able to make progress on frontier questions, they should streamline a lot of the other work (even stuff like finding and synthesizing other peoples' research), that it should significantly accelerate math development, IMO.

By humans which is the point made by Mr. Tao. AI has a use case it’s not the AGI we are all hoping for

Agreed.... still very much revolutionary though, IMO. I don't see a slowdown to AI demand. Question for stocks is whether the growth is priced in or not, and whether it's overly priced in or by not enough.

The stock market is way overvalued but that’s just the population trying to protect its purchasing power.

I bet you at least 50% of AI investors don’t care about the tech they just want the growth.
