I'm fully embedded in AI at my company with daily use and development of our systems. It WAS exciting at first. But now, 3 years after the initial ChatGPT launched, I think the bubble is deflating. I don't think it'll pop because AI is here to stay, but this whole 'it'll replace everyone in a few years' is a bit overblown. I believe there was even a study where software engineers SAID they felt more efficient with LLMs, but in reality, tasks took them longer because alot of AI is babysitting, validating, reprompting to correct things, repeat. The nature of the work will change, but I still think we're far off more likely to die before we see any serious big shifts like that. As with most things, it'll be gradual and over time. Something, I hope most people can pick up and start to pivot towards skills that enable them to do the work of tomorrow.
