Despite massive investments and widespread adoption efforts, LLMs have fallen short of demonstrating practical benefits that justify their costs and societal impact. This assessment suggests AI should be classified as a failed technology rather than the revolutionary breakthrough it was promised to be, reflecting mounting skepticism about whether current AI systems can deliver on their ambitious promises.
