I _believe_ the term "AI Psychosis" is a "thought-terminating cliché" that readily puts you in a position to disarm any criticism to your point of view, which, if you're aware of it or not, it's a belief in and of itself. I'm more willing to bet your can't have discussions because you're trying to have debates.

But on your actual point, I don't think AI needs to "surpass current experts abilities in all promised fields" as a marker of its ability. The immediate gains has already shown some remarkable promise and more LLMs should have had safeguards around mental health up front. If I were to put it on a scale, I would say it is net positive long term with a strong negative spike up front which was somewhat preventable. But who knows, maybe is just have "AI Psychosis" and you can easily dismiss me.
