I don’t see google, twitter, facebook, nvidia and alibaba working on AIs more than the ones designed to replace humans for content generation, and I don’t see money from anyone else of that size going into such projects either.
Then you should take a better look, because most of those companies are researching AI for tasks far beyond content generation - Google and NVIDIA for example have been doing a lot of research on AI for robotics.
This is the most public place where Nvidia discusses their projects.
None of these are robotics and this is the most public place where Nvidia talks about their AI projects. Admittedly we also have models that are replacing engineers as well as artists, but I still don’t see where they’re advertising their robotics work.
This is the most public place where Google discusses their projects. Again, no discussion of robotics.
They very well could still be doing robotics work, but I don’t care if they are because they haven’t advertised it to the public and tried to get us excited about it anywhere near the level they have all advertised their generative AIs.
I honestly don’t care about the extent to which they’re investing in one application of AI or the other, I care about the culture war these companies are washing against us, trying to make us all okay with AI generated content that displaces humans from doing the work they enjoy so that they can make money. If they’re making robots with AI too, why aren’t they talking about it nearly as much?
I never moved the goalposts, you misinterpreted my comment to make it easier to rebut.
I said we aren’t seeing them work on any kind of AI MORE than we’re seeing them work on generative AI for content creation. That much is true, and you haven’t disproven it.
Am I understanding you correctly that you’re now claiming you meant “the companies don’t put more work into non-content generating AIs than into content generating AIs” instead of “the companies don’t work on AIs apart from content generating AIs”?
If so, it’s weird that you didn’t initially clarify, and instead shifted your point to “they are not talking about it enough”.
Well you’ll notice that’s what my initial comment says, so yes, obviously that’s what I always meant. My evidence for that statement which you tried to refute was that they aren’t talking about it at ALL when you do a cursory search for their current AI projects. So it clearly can’t be the primary focus. I’m not sure what you’re having such a hard time understanding

They are not advertising those things because they are still in development, and can’t (yet) be turned into a product.
You have very weird expectations on this topic and are moving the goalposts.
Do you have the source for that? Am curious to read up on those.
Sure, here are a couple examples, each with the respective Two Minute Papers episode I saw them in:
