That same tired script of "You can't say AI is useless, I use it as a $productivityApp, so it's clearly not worth nothing, which invalidates all your claims." shows up in Zitron's comment box, it's like clockwork.

I dunno man, maybe it's because the ability to generate templates and spellcheck is a free feature in most IDEs and would be a rounding error of a rounding error when we're talking about billion dollar investments?

Yeah I’m sure it’s helpful sometimes. The issue is it useful enough to enough people to justify burning billions of dollars on training?

Ed isn’t criticizing GenAI, he’s criticizing OpenAi’s business model. Big difference.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
