> I agree that it’s good and not going anywhere, but I also think it’s overhyped at the same time. Both can be true.
I think that to say it is overhyped says more about what you read and the company that you keep than it does about the actual technology. I don’t mean that as an insult or anything - clearly there is a lot of hype about AI on HN, which I also read.
But I would say that most people in my life actually don’t have enough experience with AI. Outside of work, I’m the only person I know using it every day. And it’s something that very rarely comes up in discussion.
Except it’s not rubbish out. The output is astoundingly good - something I would have considered science fiction a few years ago.
It’s not perfect. But as a tool in certain contexts, it is already proving its worth. And it’s only going to get better.
Sorry that you’re sick of it, but I think this tech is here to stay.
