## Behold, the Technological Shark Attack!

Right, let’s talk about this “breakthrough,” shall we? This shimmering, digital marvel – a language model they’re so keen to show off. Apparently, it’s meant to be revolutionary. It can *generate text*. Groundbreaking stuff, truly. We should all gather ’round and applaud the sheer audacity of… writing words!

Because apparently, being able to string sentences together is now an accomplishment worthy of a ticker-tape parade. I mean, seriously? My toaster probably generates something vaguely resembling a coherent thought when it pops up my breakfast. Are we going to give *it* a medal too?

It’s all very impressive in the same way that watching paint dry is gripping entertainment. The marketing hype surrounding this thing is so thick you could spread it on toast (a task, incidentally, your toaster is probably already handling better). They want us to believe it represents some monumental leap forward in artificial intelligence! A technological surfer who just wrestled with a bronze whaler – except the shark was common sense and the board? Well, the board’s a marketing campaign full of hot air.

I’m sure somewhere a room full of very serious people are nodding sagely, declaring this is “a game-changer.” They’re probably already brainstorming ways to deploy it to write better press releases for more underwhelming innovations. And I’ll be here, rolling my eyes, wondering when someone will invent something genuinely useful that doesn’t involve generating variations on the same tired sentence structures. Because right now, this feels less like progress and more like a very expensive distraction.

It can generate text, you see? *Text.* How thrilling!
