Do you use it regularly or develop ML/ AI applications?
Yes. I wrote my masters in engineering about MLAI (before chatgpt and YOLO became popular and viable), and am also currently working with multi-object detection and tracking using MLAI.
It's not gonna be like the invention of the modern computer, but it's probably gonna reach about the same level as Google, or the electronic typing machine.
I use some image generation tools and LLMs.
I think it's a safe bet to estimate it will work out to be somewhere in the middle of the two extremes. I don't think AI/ML is going to be worthless, but I also don't think it's going to do all these terrible things people are afraid of. It will find its applications and be another tool we have.
