Yes, when employed properly it can be a helpful tool. But when it's given all the house keys and unlimited leeway, it will burn down your house (and your budget) because it cannot make reasonable choices. It's not sentient (yet), despite all the promises from AI evangelists.

It's quite far from sentience, let alone sapience.
