It's a very clever thing these imitation intelligence companies are doing. If a thousand people are attempting to solve these kinds of problems with their "free" AI products and 999 of these attempts fail, they can still trumpet the rare success and ignore the 999 people who were simply wasting everyone's time by using the product.

Or worse...

We'll know soon enough what this technology is good for and what it is not good for. I suspect these huge investments in giant data centers and the like have overshot the mark.
