Sooner than that, possibly. They're absolutely *hemorrhaging* money,
every iteration of the product takes longer and costs more to develop/
"train," they're bucking for the mother of all IP-infringement suits
when the corporate media behemoths finally catch up with them (anyone
gets "Sora" to produce a Disney character, and you might as well just
head for the fallout shelter,) "hallucinations" are still essentially
unsolvable given the way the thing works, and it still can't do *half*
of what they keep promising it will Real Soon Now.

Ed Zitron - https://www.wheresyoured.at/ - has done a lot of solid
writing on this in the last year or two. If they didn't have a bunch of
vulture capitalists constantly pumping the money firehose in hopes of
selling it to CEOs on the prospect of being able to fire all their
employees and replace them with ChatGPT, they'dve been dead and buried
long ago.
