The world has some cool new toys and I'm glad people are playing with them. I hope it only becomes increasingly accessible with time. Yes, there's going to be a ton of snake oil and disappointments if you listen to the people looking to get rich quick, but I'm excited for what might come from it in the end.

In the meantime, all the attention and media is easing people into thinking about some difficult questions that we may end up having to deal with sooner than we'd like.

The hype can be annoying, and I'm sure they'll be suckers who lose a lot of money chasing it, but I'm also sure AI will get better, and be better understood too, as a result of all of the attention and attempts to shoehorn it into new roles and environments.
