> i dont think there is any software on the planet that i would consider "truly life changing", so i find it a bit weird to hold ai up to that standard.

I think the author made this point because earlier they mention how people tell them AI changed their life.

>how people tell them AI changed their life

People are chucking trillions into data centers and AI. It’s the end of work, or that they don’t write code anymore.

Every week there is some new method to make LLMs produce code, ranging from Langchain, MCP, Agents, Ralph loops, gas town, just loops.

You are stating its hyperbole, when people are walking around without closing their laptops, or are awake all night running agents.
