You could say that. But you could also say that none of these other technological advances got pushed through this badly while being obviously not ready for ~~widespread~~ use.

And also, can you really say that though? Most other technological advances had a pretty clear distinction from the older way of doing things.

I can certainly agree with you that most current advertised use cases of LLMs are total bullshit, yes. My point is just that asking if it deserves to exist based on its shortfalls is weird, when it's barely existed a few years. It just shouldn't be getting pushed as much as it is
