I am an AI optimist. I think that transformer models and improved computer vision will absolutely change society for the better. As will any other useful tools we add to our toolbox. I do not think it will be some paradigm shift or revolutionary new thing like the internet or like the printing press. Something closer to good touchscreens, or wireless connections that just work. Useful enough to become ubiquitous but not enough to totally change the landscape of human experience.
