The chasm between "practical and useful utilities that have long term viability without a vast knowledge of the underlying mechanisms" and what AI-immersed devs

The chasm between "practical and useful utilities that have long term viability without a vast knowledge of the underlying mechanisms" and what AI-immersed devs consider "practical" and "useful" grows wider every time I check in. Snarky and dismissive, sure. But the Wii wasn't a "1 to 1 motion matching" machine no matter how many people insisted it was. It was just "better than anything before had ever been". Which is not the same thing as "good". I'm not holding anything against anyone. The Wii was an incredible console, an LLMs are an incredible technology. I'd just like to read some thoughts on the tech from people who are more aligned with myself in their discernment. If, for nothing else, some variety.
