Technologies come and go, but often when a worldwide popular one vanishes, it's because it got replaced with something else.

So lets say we need LLM's to go away. What should that be? Impossible to answer, I know, but that's what it would take.

We cant even get rid of Facebook and Twitter.

BUT that being said. LLMs will be 100x more efficient at some point - like any other new technology. We are just not there yet.

It will not go away at this point. Too many daily users already, who uses it for study, work, chatting, looking things up.

If not OpenAI, it will be another service.
