woah woah woah, lets have less of this looking at reality here. We all know generative AI is a fad that never works for anything and anyone using it is an idiot, we don’t need to have our prejudices challenged

We’re in an online echo chamber, we don’t need to look at reality. Just find the opinions that we agree with, and agree with us, and put 'em at the top!

People don’t like it when you tell them that despite what they personally believe modern AIs are a bit more sophisticated than Machiavellian chains.
Now there are people running around saying that we will have a super intelligence by 2030 and it will make us all immortal and build a Dyson sphere, and a faster than light spaceship. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but really it has nothing to do with the conversation about if AI are useful now. We don’t need something to be intelligent to be useful.
