Though the title says AI the authors means generative AI and specifically LLMs when talking about it. If you read the post you will find that her take is very measured and mostly talks about how AI companies overhype LLMs and AI in general (Anthropic CEO recently said that AI that can survive and replicate in the wild is possible in the near term, the drivel that is https://openai.com/charter).

Oh I completely agree that there's a ton of hype around this stuff, and I expect the bubble is going to burst as more people start realizing the limitations trying to use it. So yeah, overall I agree with most of what the article is saying.
