AI is a super polarising topic. Even now there are people who are like “it’s all AI slop so it’s all useless” along with the “OMG AI!!! OMG we will have AGI soon!!!” people.
The truth, as always, is in between. There’s loads of people using it for useful things, learning, automation and getting good results. But it’s also wrong enough that you need to deploy it carefully sometimes.
Don’t worry about either group. Keep objective and use AI where it helps and do it yourself where you are better. That’s all.
