This is the best attitude to have about the current state. Unless you have some dramatically different sensible solution (and you probably don't when it comes to technology, because it seems to spread for reasons that would eliminate other sensible solutions) that will catch on and take over and replace AI: it's going to continue to mature as long as it's mostly useful to everyone. And AI isn't even a new industry, it has been maturing for quite a while, which adds more weight to the argument that having an attitude that adapts to technology (unless you wish to go solo) is a 'better' fit.
The dramatic solution can never be: 'we should all just want to do it this way because it felt better to me'. That never seems to work, from what I've seen. So there is a lot of public discourse, arguing, to determine if 'doing things the old way' is perhaps more better. And if not, maybe we just shed a tear and move on (to look for a better fit).
