The fact that you think that’s the extent of AI development means you’re not informed enough to really comment on this issue. LLMs are only one from of AI. And the fact that they can now recognize natural language is a huge boost in itself.

Large Language Models are the form of so-called “AI” that’s being crammed into everything at our expense.
The stuff that’s actually useful, like engineering and bioscience models, are not getting trillions in investments in the hopes that they’ll render the majority of the population unemployable.

That’s the most visible thing. It’s not the only thing. And the cool thing about AI models is that they can be run together in various ways to commitment each other. It’s not a zero sum game

Dude, wtf are you talking about?
When people complain about “AI” they aren’t talking about aerodynamics simulators, they’re talking about LLMs built on stolen content for the express purpose of stealing jobs and recommendation algorithms designed to push people into right-wing rabbit-holes. Those are entirely a zero-sum game where corporate gains can only be achieved by consumer losses.
