Oh... So all the hype, sales and industry has just sprung out of nowhere as if by magic... I never knew...

You're both half wrong.
There is code behind the scenes, but the training data is separate to the code. The training data is going to be scrapped from the web and it's going to be biased towards whatever is common on the Internet, the 'schoolboys' writing the code aren't exactly responsible for that, blame the media and what it influences mainly.

Soz, I forgot the 'sarchasm' tag...
You know, the gap between someone being sarcastic and the person that doesn't get it.
With all that said I am very disappointed that the sum total of human achievement for the last few millenia has come down to coding and training and recoding and retraining lumps of silicon to deliver half baked results that *still* have to be verified and are therefore not worth the power it takes to run them...
Waste. Of. Time.

Like a lot of technology it depends on what you do with it. A train can carry your stuff more effectively than a mule. You can use it to carry materials to build a university, or raw ingredients for a new drug that you can manufacture at scale, and that's probably a good thing. You can use it to carry weapons for a war that doesn't need to happen, or cattle from an increasingly-industrialized good supply, and that's a bad thing. You can maintain it poorly and spill toxic chemicals. Up to you.
