@gvwilson@mastodon.social IMO its usefulness is still at least a little bit up in the air. There are too many legitimate concerns about user skill degradation, hallucinations, and business ROI at full unsubsidized token cost to confidently say it is useful. Perhaps its usefulness will be more firmly proven in the future as models improve, tool sets and processes around them improve, and the alleged usefulness is better studied. Or maybe not. In the meantime, while the uses are at best unproven, anecdotal, and speculative, the ethical problems and societal harms are much more firmly established.
