I think one helpful trick when thinking about AI hype is to replace mentions of "AI" with "Blockchain" to see how silly it all sounds.

And replacing it with "fart" sounds even more silly. You're not proving anything with this.

And I actually think Canonical's approach makes sense. They're not directly benefiting from the AI tools. They're just making it more accessible for users.
