Spoilers: the future is actually kinda just ok-ish. GPT is used in almost all professions but akin to Google. Nothing really changes, we come back to these threads and articles every couple years to look back and realize how plain stupid and hopeful humanity really is sometimes.
Adding a major new tool that is “used in almost all professions” is a pretty big deal even if it’s only used as productivity software, which IMO is still far too short sighted of its potential (a simple chat interface is just the baby steps before we figure out all the API driven usecases).
What was the last time we could look back at old HN threads and say that? Bitcoin?
