I feel kind of like a Luddite sometimes but I don't understand why EVERYONE is rushing to use AI? I use a couple different agents to help me code, and ChatGPT has largely replaced Google in my everyday use, but I genuinely don't understand the value proposition of every other companies offerings.
I really feel like we're in the same "Get it out first, figure out what it is good for later" bubble we had like 7 years ago with non-AI ChatBots. No users actually wanted to do anything important by talking to a chatbot then, but every company still pushed them out. I don't think an LLM improves that much.
Every time some tool I've used for years sends an email "Hey, we've got AI now!" my thought is just "well, that's unfortunate"...
I don't want AI taking any actions I can't inspect with a difftool, especially not anything important. It's like letting a small child drive a car.
