I want AI for exactly one thing: helping me put my own thoughts into words. A GPT-3 machine trained in 2021 it’s perfectly good enough for that. For everything else, I want simple if-this-then-that programming.
I’ve found AI useful just for programming examples. I think it’s a decent programming resource especially when working in an unfamiliar language.
Outside of that it’s right now a net negative in almost every case where I’ve seen it used. Google results are already polluted by AI-generated hallucinated crap and the bots will feast on their own excrement until it dominates the entire internet.
Let’s be honest about the two reasons why the industry is pushing it. Number one, it has the potential to replace human workers at low cost and therefore is attractive to the investor class. Number two, tech investment is down in a high interest rate business climate and after the dud of VR the tech companies need a new buzzword to attract capital.
They are certainly not cramming it into your OS because they think you will actually find it useful.
