Automation undeniably has some useful applications. But the folks hyping modern "AI" have not only dramatically overstated its capabilities, many of them generally view these tools as a way to lazily cut corners or undermine labor. There's also a weird innovation cult that has arisen around managers and LLM use, resulting in the mandatory use of tools that may not be helping anybody - just because. The result is often a hot mess, as we've seen in journalism.
