I must be in as much of a bubble as the author is because I genuinely don't understand how people believe this. This piece is centered on the media around AI, not AI itself. Tons of business people and journalists are quoted, no people who already use it in their day to day life (like I and many people here probably do), or as part of their job where it undeniably creates very real value. Or researchers who would be happy to answer the question of exactly how AI can create value, if the business people don't want to.
