Fortunately, you don't have to evaluate everything yourself. There are other people to do things to when they talk. I reevalued AI and started using it because back in December someone I trusted said hey you should try it it works great. I had previously tried it a year ago and it didn't work but when someone I trusted said try it again I tried the new models and suddenly they were working and so now I say AI is good. Don't confuse good with perfect. There are certainly a lot of things AI does poorly. However, it is very helpful in doing complex tasks that I could do, but would just be too tedious.
