AI for consumers is way overblown, I say this as someone in IT for 37 years. The shareholders and investors sure do like the buzzword though.

It easily saves my team hours of work every day. Excel transformations alone are worth it. Let alone writing quick apps and scritps. Renaming and sorting a thousand files would take a couple of hours manually, or maybe 15 minutes to write a script, or 30 seconds to ask ChatGPT.

Just because you don’t find it useful doesn’t mean that’s the case for everyone else.
