Comment on Ask HN: Your thoughts on Linus Torvalds' view on AI: 90% marketing, 10% reality?

Comments

Pretty obvious thoughts? Modern internet society tends to oversell everything of small interest tenfold.

Idk why exactly he hates the hype cycle, but for me it is the complete unsearchability of the topic. You can’t find anything because everyone shills, sells, shills again. Stupid tutorials, handwavy explanations, all sorts of obsolete copypasted recipes, “startups”, spam. We are an absolutely obnoxious kind for the internet and you can’t do anything but join the damned hype until it dies down. I hate the word and everyone who rides it with all my soul strings. A planet of apes.
