I hear this a lot, but don't understand it.

In my own field (biomedical research), AI has already been a revolution. Everyone - and I mean everyone - is using AlphaFold, for example. It is a game changer, a true revolution.

And everyday I use AI for mundane things, like summarization, transcribing, and language translation. All supremely useful. And there is a ton more. So I never understand the "hype" thing. It deserves to be hyped imo, as it is already become essential.

I think there is a group of people that don't want AI to be useful and think that by telling other people that its not useful that these other people will believe them. Unfortunately for them, more and more people are finding value with AI. It literally saved my father-in-law's life. It's become my kid's best school tutor. But there will still be people telling me that it has no value.
