Can’t help that many people who are good at leveraging AI to build things sit around one upping each other on twitter all day instead of going out there and building cool stuff for less technical people.

All anyone seems to be able to make with AI is tools to optimise AI usage.

Isn’t this just selection bias - you don’t see the people who are out making AI deliver boring value for people unless you use their products right?

I.e. Ramp does a pretty good job of using AI to make expense management easier/ CloudFlare makes it a lot easier to configure stuff properly on CloudFlare but is just like boringly useful.

maybe they aren't that good at using AI to build things after all?

That's where the value is in though. Hyping yourself (or your company) up. Attention is all you need, after all.
