The last line has been my experience as well. I only trust what I've verified firsthand now because the Internet is just so rife with people trying to influence your thoughts in a way that benefits them, over a good faith sharing of the truth.
I just recently heard this quote from a clip of Jeff Bezos: "When the data and the anecdotes disagree, the anecdotes are usually right.", and I was like... wow. That quote is the zeitgeist.
If it's so revolutionary, it should be immediately obvious to me. I knew Uber, Netflix, Spotify were revolutionary the first time I used them. With LLMs for coding, it's like I'm groping in the dark trying to find what others are seeing, and it's just not there.
