So annoying when a journalist writes a good, factual account of AI and how it doesn't actually deliver on its claims, but then feels the need to throw a bone to the AI-pilled with a "but it's still early days" caveat at the end. Like bruh, why? Is your editor making you do this? Is it to keep the AI-pilled trolls from filling up the comment section? What is it?
