How often are grandiose statements like these made by anyone who is not woefully naive (or trying to con investors)?

Serving requests takes computers and electricity, which costs money. Even if chatGPT took over from Google search, OpenAI would still need to pay its bills. Just as Google didn't fundamentally change the search ecosystem when it took over from Yahoo et al., OpenAI would be almost certain to operate within the existing paradigm due to a need to pay its expenses.

Guess where the nft people went after that bubble burst. Cause that We will change everything statement is literally what crypto claimed constantly. Then billions got lost like 3 times a month and most realized "oh its a scam"

Ai contents gonna go the same way. It's people in programming instead of cryptography this time thinking they found an infinite money glitch. It'll be something else when this bubble bursts. Meanwhile, the rest of us will get some neat tech that'll have a use at some point (although who knows where block chains use is) after they tear out their hair and rip open their wallets stress testing it to its limits and beyond. My money on ai arts real use after the novelty wears off is in the roleplay community. Mostly because it would be hilarious to see how the snobby tech bros feel about that.
