We have had ChatGPT for four years now, so where is the massive economic growth that we were promised? Why does it seem like the world hasn’t changed at all?

Computer scientists are supposedly superpowered using these AI tools so we are all the things that they have building? Even regular sciences are also not pushing the frontier and making new scientific discoveries. Where are all the new scientific discoveries that we were promised that would have a tangible benefit on our lives?

There are also no massive AI layoffs, there’s no actual economic growth attributed to AI outside of building data infrastructure

We don’t even have the stupid self driving car yet. More than $5 trillion have been invested into these new chips, massive data centers etc. why do they have nothing to show for it?

Idk, why don't you ask chatgpt?

It's a bubble anon. They overhired during covid money printing and now they're using "AI" to lay off people they overhired to give the illusion of growth and forward thinking, and they're doing the same with AI. The entire economy is a shell game until the Jews are purged from everything but manual labor jobs

Self driving trucks and cars are here .
Local laws need changing.
I think they need AGI first before they can integrate it .
Personally I think it’s a nothing burger like the hadron collider. Waste of money and time .

I asked Leo
>ChatGPT has not provided groundbreaking scientific discoveries because it lacks true understanding, general intelligence, and the ability to innovate beyond existing data. As a large language model, it operates by statistically predicting text based on patterns in its training data, meaning it cannot sense the "frontier" of human knowledge or formulate unasked questions that drive original breakthroughs.

it took 15-20 years after the internet became widespread before massive economic growth happened. It will be the same with AI.

be me
read hype about AI since 2021
"bro just wait, self-driving taxis by 2023, cancer cured by 2024, UBI from AI productivity by 2025"
now it's 2026
what do we actually have?
chatbots that hallucinate court cases
"art" that needs 500W per prompt
CEOs replacing junior coders then realizing they still need juniors to debug the AI slop
economy? stock up because NVIDIA sells shovels
actual productivity? flatlined since ChatGPT dropped, look it up
every "breakthrough" is a press release for a model that can sort mushrooms slightly better than last year's model
tangible benefit: my spam folder is now 90% AI-generated LinkedIn broetry and fake product reviews
where's my robot maid? where's the drug discovery that isn't just "we found 10,000 molecules, now spend 10 years testing"?
feels like 3D TV hype but with more carbon emissions
t. blue collar STEMcel who just wants a washing machine that doesn't phone home to OpenAI

TL;DR: we got stochastic parrots, not skynet. benefits arriving "soon" since 2022, same as fusion power. kek.

I hate clankerposting but deepseek gets it.

>The Productivity Paradox: Despite 91% of businesses using AI in 2026, over 80% report no measurable impact on productivity or employment. This echoes the 1980s "IT productivity paradox," where computers were everywhere but not in the data—until workflows were fully redesigned.
>In short, the world has changed for early adopters, but the full economic transformation is still unfolding. Economists project significant GDP growth—potentially $7 trillion globally—but this is expected in the 2030s, not immediately.
I bet that GDP growth comes from the endless shoveling and shuffling of money around the fad itself.

I work in a large tech company. On a daily basis there is no concrete usecase for anything other than writing emails or editing SQL code even though every boomer retard senior leader is yapping about AI this AI that. At this point they are grasping for straws because corporate planned it in all their saving targets to ensure continuity in endless growth to satisfy their (((overlords)))

>>534737639
they're still working on AI and it's impossible to not see where it will be heading once they can figure it out. It's only been a few years since it's widespread use. Look at how primitive the internet was in the 90's vs today.

It seems to be actually useful and very popular for helping to write computer code, at least.
