I feel like with the hype cycle and constant publishing of sketchy claims that I pretty much daily have an "oh shit" moment followed by a "nope, everything is about the same" moment. It's frankly exhausting. It's hard for me to recall a subject that has irritated me as much over a period of years, and it's barely even about AI itself but instead just feeling harassed with the constant anxiety and rage baiting.
I felt the same way, then I started with "I'll believe it when I see it". Now I'm a bit happier.
Pretty good take. I don't really get the feelings of anxiety, but sometimes I'm working and I'm like I'm flying this is so fast! And then everything comes crashing down when I can't figure out one last bug.
