To call AI useless is quite a strong statement.
There’s a million places to use it!
The problem is that the market thinks there’s a billion places to use. And right now we’re funding 999 million places that shouldn’t be using AI but have the funding to do that dumb thing so we can figure the one million places where it makes fantastic sense.
I get your point and yes, I was exaggerating for effect but... are there a million places to use Ai where you can blindly trust its output/work?
I do not really think it's completely useless; however, I do think the uses are very very limited (compared to the hype) and the cost of running these models for the benefit they provide makes them even less practical
