The problem is, who do you define as professionals? I'm a professional software engineer. I argue that there is no responsible way to use AI at the moment- it uses too many resources for a far too worthless result. Everything useful that an AI can do is currently better (and cheaper) to do another way, save perhaps live transcription.
Do you define Sam Altman as a professional? Because his guidance wants the entire world to give up 10% of the worldwide GDP to his company (yes, seriously!) He's clearly touched in the head, or on drugs. Should we follow his advice?
