I told my undergrad classes years ago: if corporations & the wealthy are pushing something this hard on the public, as they are with AI, you should be deeply suspicious of their motives AI is not nearly as useful as they make it out to be. It’s a great buzzword to generate VC funding, that’s it.

I have the same reaction when those same folks push for gun bans, age verification laws, etc: incredibly-deep suspicion. Seems like once the hype and pie-in-the-sky promises are done, we'll settle into a new reality where the usefulness is apparent and likely muted compared to said hype.
