And a subgroup (or cousin?) of the exuberant AI boosters are the people absolutely convinced that LLM research leads to the singularity in the next 18-24 months.

I really do wish we could get to a place where the general consensus was something similar to what Anil wrote - the greatest gains and biggest pitfalls are realized by people who aren't experienced in whatever domain they're using it for.

The more experience you have in a given domain, the more narrow your use-cases for AI will be (because you can do a lot of things on your own faster than the time spent coming up with the right prompts and context mods), but paradoxically the better you will be at using the tools because of your increased ability to spot errors.

*Note: by "narrow" I don't mean useless, I just mean benefits typically accrue as speed gains rather than knowledge + speed gains.
