"close to meaningless" sums up my expert opinion on the whole current AI hype machine sales pitch.

Highly tuned models for incredibly specific, not-dangerous use cases is the next pragmatic step. There's a lot to excited about, in that very narrow band.

Anyone selling more than that is part of a con, or in very rare cases, doing genuine "fuck off and ask me again in a decade" kinds of research.
