I am still impressed with it.
But I’ve never had any desire to have any meaningful conversation with it, and it’s still a fight to make AI do valuable things.
I work with AI, just today I finished another AI tool integration (it’s actually very cool, but proprietary). The “trick” to making ai useful is to create useful tools for annoying tasks then let AI deal with those tools for you. And even that’s sketchy.
It is so easy to get hyped by the benchmarks but there are only two real benchmarks that matter: do people actually want to use it, and can it do what you promise it can.
For 99% of AI integrations the answer to both is a resounding no. Maybe when models are smarter that’ll improve, but so much AI crap is just devs trying to check a box, and not actually what users would want.
