Electricity, light, and heat aren't magic: they're science. Science is something well understood. Something that seems magical is something poorly understood. When I ask AI a question, I don't know whether it will tell me something truthful, mendacious in a verisimilitudinous way, or blatantly wrong, and I can only tell when it's blatantly wrong. That's magic, and I hate magic. I want more science in my life.
If your light switch doesn't turn on the lights any more it's probably broken.
If your "AI" light switch doesn't turn on the lights, you have to rephrase the prompt.
