Eli5: How did we go from zero ai, to one company with an ai that holds a conversation, and then seemingly immediately on to multiple companies with ai that makes music, photos, and movies in such a short period of time?

Question

For real. One day there’s nothing. Then chat gpt shows up. And then the next day ai can create ANYTHING and there are a whole bunch of companies with software.

Answer 1

Honestly, for a lot of companies, it’s a gimmick. Chat bots have just been rebranded as “AI” to make it seem high tech.

There’s companies doing work in AI, but currently most of the time you see “AI” it’s just a plagiarism bot with an internet connection.
