Unfortunately, or fortunately, for some people I guess, today's AI is basically going to be used to sell you more products, and not much else, advances in science and other fields of endeavor notwithstanding. For old geezers like me, being able to interrogate one of these LLMs about stuff that used to require heavier Binging or Googling is fine, but really doesn't change the contours of my day-to-day existence much at all; that won't happen until my PC acquires arms and legs, generally speaking, and the dexterity to use them in ways that will actually be useful to me. That day is approaching, to be sure, and I predict that within 100 to 200 years, personal robots will become available to more and more people, first as expensive toys, but then as indispensable helpmates. But then I'm just a dreamer... 🙃
