This just in, something that only exists as a sci-fi trope which has never been demonstrated to be even remotely possible is not on the verge of spontaneously emerging from something that is completely unrelated and comparatively unremarkable.

From the source Bloomberg article:

Like Google and Anthropic, OpenAI is now shifting attention from the size of these models to newer use cases, including a crop of AI tools called agents that can book flights or send emails on a user’s behalf. “We will have better and better models,” Altman wrote on Reddit. “But I think the thing that will feel like the next giant breakthrough will be agents.”

The fact that Sam “worldcoin” Altman is saying this publicly (like anyone would trust an LLM to book a flight or to send non-trivial emails) suggests the grift may be coming to an end.

AI bubble will soon pop.

People were not doubting? Wut?
