The tech is interesting, no doubt. It's very effective as a tool to generate text nobody reads, like the marketing speak on your random startup website. It still isn't efficient on things where what is generated actually matters.

Your example with customer service is news to me, thanks. On my end, I remember the bad experience customers had with Air Canada. We'll see how this grows in the future.

I had a discussion last week with people saying it'll automate software engineering, which is not a given. You say "yet", but I'm skeptical it'll ever work. I can see it designing UI better than a non-specialist, but the flaws in quality means I can't trust it anywhere near my code, even though I can see a future for it as a fancy static analyzer.
