    Good luck now selling those products, given the negative sentiment around products advertised as having “AI”.

      Eh that one study was mostly about stupid products like “AI coffee machine” or “AI fridge”. AI products that make sense sell pretty well.

        At least acc. to TechSpot, the negative sentiment is general. It’s just more pronounced for some products (high risk and/or price) than others.

        So even where plopping a LLM or similar would make sense, there’ll be likely strong market resistance.

        The fact that plenty actually sensible products are plagued with issues due to GAFAM disingenuousness/stupidity doesn’t help either. (See: Windows Recall, Google abusing search monopoly to feed its AI, etc.)

          That’s not what the study says. I’m no AI-hater but I would sure stay away from an AI car or medical diagnosis. Those products make absolutely no sense.

          So even where plopping a LLM or similar would make sense, there’ll be likely strong market resistance.

          I work tangentially to the industry (not making models, not making apps based on models, but making tools to help people who do) and that is not what i observed. Just like in every market, products that make sense make fucking bank. It’s mostly boring B2B stuff which doesn’t make headlines but there is some money being made right now, with some very satisfied customers.

          The “market resistance” story is anecdotal clickbait.

      Smartphones were a joke until the iPhone. There will be some resistance, but someone will crack the code to make it easily acceptable and then the race is away with the AI products
