Yeah that's where I'm at. There's this general sentiment that if AI does not solve everything immediately, then it is worthless and hype. Especially the part about not being able to deal with corner cases, forgetting that all AI needs to be valuable is to deal with such cases better than your average human, which isn't a very high bar.

No, I feel like that's the exact other way around. There's a general sentiment that AI will solve everything immediately and lead to a massive breakthrough in every single aspect of our lives, when in fact what has been accomplished so far in this "new AI" boom is improvements brute-force statistical fitting.

Hmm. That means that in order for a human to get paid, they're going to have to be able to do something better than an AI can...
