It's a double-edged sword, IMO. On the one hand, GPT and AI is immediately usable and arguably quite cool to the layman. It's not a perfect system, but it can write Bash scripts and handle your resignation email. Anyone who does copywriting or programming for a living will probably find a couple uses for it. It's fairly cheap, and it's definitely "worth it" more than analogs like Cryptocurrency. ...on the other hand, though, AI is kinda a bubble. It's our nature to put our hopes and dreams (and money) into the most-promising fields of computing; that's fine. But AI truly has limited application - anything that requires accountability, determinism or trust is a bad fit for AI. When you really whittle down the places you can apply AI, it looks a bit like those 4D theaters from the early 2000s - a cool concept for some stuff, but experience-ruining for others. The eager over-application of AI will be the bubble, not the technology itself.
