I agree. What I meant to say is not that there won't be any use cases, but rather that they won't be as obviously transformative as people expect them to be. We won't have new kinds of products that are uniquely enabled by ChatGPT. Instead, we will get incremental improvements in spell checking, rewording text, code search, etc. But just like Gmail's autocomplete, better language translation, or better voice recognition, these will be largely behind the scenes and won't lead to big societal changes. Many of these improvements will be existing companies integrating better models, not new startups that become possible now because of ChatGPT.
