I mean, that cart is miles ahead of the horse.

AI agents that can replace humans are miles away, but AI that can improve human output isnt.

Mmmmmmmm . . . Sort of kind of, to some extent.

The trade-offs and fine-print and all the hidden steps and caveats to everything - it’s like at least 10 years too early, but the unfathomable hype frenzy means we’re going to get stick with something. A generalizing summary bot is - OK.

If they can ever get it to not have to be double-checked every time it’d be more useful. But the fact is, AI simply doesn’t understand what words mean. Math is good, code is a sort-of in-between. Everything else is a crapshoot.
