I agree with you. There is a knee-jerk “AI bad” when the real answer is it’s overhyped. There are good uses for it. I use it nearly daily for work, and, like anything other tech, it’s just a tool. It doesn’t replace me. It just makes me faster. Anyone that claims it can replace people might as well say that a hammer can replace a person.
Right, Hammer, Forklift. Tools that people use.
But right now we have a bunch of idiots spinning in circles on forklifts throwing hammers. Yes, you can do that… Yes, it’s probably fun, but ultimately that is not what the forklift is really good for.
