just because it is used for stuff, doesn't mean it should be used for stuff. example: certain ai companies prohibit applicants from using ai when applying.

Lots of things have had tons of money poured into them only to end up worthless once the hype ended. Remember nfts? remember the metaverse? String theory has never made a testable prediction either, but a lot of physicists have wasted a ton of time on it.

again: hype train, fomo, bubble.

it's not everyone's cup of tea, and that's fine. It's not awful though. Arcane, yes. very powerful? also yes.

well yeah, I tend to read things before I form an opinion about them.
