The most important thing in this article in my mind is in the level setting section - if you are basing your perspective on the state of AI from when you tested it 6mo+ ago, your perspective is likely not based on the current reality.

This is kind of a first though for any kind of technology. The speed of development and change here is unreal. Never before has a couple months of not being on top of things led to you being considered "out of date" on a tool. The problem is that this kind of speed requires not just context, but a cultural shift on the speed of updating that context. Humanity just isn't equipped to handle this rate of change.

Historically in tech, we'd often scoff at the lifecycle of other industries - Airlines haven't changed their software in 20 years?? Preposterous! For the vast majority of us though, we're the other industry now.
