This is a great point, and one that has been blowing my mind for a while. The public think of AI as this black box thing approaching human intelligence. They don't know that when you look under the hood of a lot of ai products you see a string of prompts that anyone could put together themselves. The companies are just putting them together in a workflow.

The general public doesn't understand how these things work, at all, and the marketing makes it sound like it is magical.

That's why this paper is important. They gave it a scenario very similar to what would happen if an AI-frenzied executive suddenly mandated that AI be used to do basic company tasks - a scenario that is playing out all over the place right now.
