IMO AI has reached this stage of its lifecycle. There have always been, and still are, valid use cases for AI, but I think the GPT-3 inspired applications we've been seeing as of late are no more than impressive tech demos. It's the first time the general public has seen a glimmer of where AI can go, but it really is just a glimmer at this point.
My advice is to keep your head down and try to be selective with the content you engage with on AI. It seems like every feed refresh I have some unknown Twitter Verified account telling me why swaths of the population will be out of a job soon. The best heuristic I have so far is to ignore AI-related posts/reshares from names I haven't heard of before, but of course that has obvious drawbacks.
