Forgive me if I don't consider your personal blog an authority of your honesty. "I'm not a liar, for real dude see it says right there"
Why are all your public projects "joke/toy projects" if AI is so awesome and production ready? My experience reflects this as the truth. Yet your work backs up my experience rather than your words.
To avoid only being snark. I think all software is about power/control and software has allowed unprecedented concentration of power Which is why it resists being official like other industries. No one with power wants restrictions on their power/software. Ultimately AI is good for small'ish projects and a productivity multiplier(eventually). I think it will lead a new revolution in distilling the current incumbents in the business world that are stagnant on vast proprietary software systems that previously could not be unseated. Small players will be able to codify/automate their business to make it competitive with big players. So I'm not "anti-ai".
edit: AI will simultaneously rot the proprietary software advantage from the inside out. As companies are further convinced that AI can solve their problem of having to pay people to maintain their software.
I think it's pretty counter-productive to default to not trusting anyone under any circumstances.
Having a "disclosures" page on a personal website is a pretty strong quality signal for me - it's inspired me to set a task to add my own.
As with all of these things, the trick is to establish credibility over time. I've been following Geoff for a few years. Given his previous work I think he has integrity and I'm ready to believe his disclosures page.

So you have no reply to my straightforward question? If AI has made you 1000x productive why do you only post self described toy/joke projects?
I know the answer though. Its because that is all it is good for. Everyone that has tried these tools knows that.
