I think you're misreading the situation with AI. It's already doing extremely useful things, and will continue to pop up all over the place, I expect. * I already talk to my phone to type more than I actually type on it. This is finally made my phone roughly as efficient as my laptop for simply inputting English text. * An artist named darknut worked for years in the Morrowind community to retexture Morrowind and creating a new higher resolution texture pack. ESRGAN upscaling lapped his work in a matter of weeks. I love his work, but the change in efficiency was a change in kind. * I haven't done it myself, but I've heard countless reports of programmers simply asking for a program with a given set of specifications to be written, and having the resulting source code available seconds later. * I wanted character sheet portraits for a role-playing scenario I was creating, and stable diffusion was able to generate half a dozen portraits in about a half an hour that were perfectly suitable. This just wasn't possible a year ago. I never got on the web3 hype train, but I'm already finding AI useful, and I don't expect it to play a less useful role over time.
