It could maybe be useful for some things some of the time. And those maybes and somes are very very important modifiers.

But that isn't what it is being sold as, by liars and grifters and scammers and fraudsters. They are selling it as a step towards AGI, and as a thing which can replace humans entirely, and as a thing which will exponentially increase productivity, etc. Believing that bullshit is a good way to ruin companies, the economy, and people's lives. And there are a lot of idiotic believers, on Wall St, in DC, and in homes on your block and mine.
