Overrated? Compared to what AGI that does not exist yet? Overhyped though? Absolutely.

We went from very little AI content making its way to your eyeballs and ears, to it occurring daily if not during your very session here today. So many thumbnails and writeups have used AI that to say it is overrated it a bit absurd unless you were expecting it to be be AGI, then yes the AI today is overrated, but it does not matter as you are consuming it still.

We went from very little AI content making its way to your eyeballs and ears, to it occurring daily if not during your very session here today.

And this AI content that you're consuming, is that an improvement?

If not maybe it's uh, what's the word? Overrated.

It is for sure an improvement as for example would have been a very basic thumbnail is now something much more interesting in so many instances.

Lol look at the glorious thumbnails!

The text is dreadful. It's somehow worse than the sweatshop content it replaced.
