It's been almost half a year since we got powerful enough models, and I'm wondering, where are all those great things that were created with them? Maybe it's just me, but nothing has changed in my life so far. No improvements, but definitely, I need to be more careful when reading, listening, watching, and using things, as bad quality slowly creeps everywhere.

  Do you build things for yourself? I’ve unlocked tremendous value just by scratching my own itches so to speak.
  But taking those bespoke contraptions to market is not something I want to out effort into. Especially when anyone can just clone it with AI.
  The AI revolution might not show up so easily in GDP.

    It appears that out of a desperate urge to show your "Well Actually" Club Card that you've proved their entire point.
