I studied Machine Learning in college and was excited by the developments being made in Neural Networks.
I followed the tech closely the entire time, even today.
But once we got a good working general use LLM then marketing teams went fucking hog wild promising things that the tech wasn't capable of, just because they knew they could trick idiots into thinking they had created "Artificial Intelligence" -_-
The tech is cool and revolutionary, but Machine Learning is still only capable of doing the things we were using it for before the LLMs got slapped onto them, and the use cases for LLMs are very limited too.
It's overhyped and an inaccurate name since it isn't intelligent in any way. A waste of water and electricity for work that can't meaningfully replace any human work.
I didn't formally study it, but yes! This is my take! I thought I kind of think I got bored with it when the simple chat interfaces came out. But it's more than that. The marketing is horrible
