I didn’t believed Google presentation off-hand because I don’t care anymore, especially because it comes from them. I just use tools and adapt. Copilot helps me automating boring tasks, can’t help much at new stuff, so I actually discovered I often do “interesting” work. I use gpt 3.5/4 for everything but work, it’s been a bless, best suggestion engine for movies, books and music with just a prompt and without the need of tons of data about my watch history(looking at you youtube). In these strange times I’m actually learning a lot more, productivity is more or less the same as before llms, but annoying tasks are relieved a bit. All of that without the hype. Sometimes I laugh at Google, it must be a real shit show inside that mega corporation, but I kinda understand the need of a marketing editing, having a first class ticket on the AI train is so important for them as it seems they see it as an existential threat. At least it seems so since they decided to take the risk of lying.
