The ECREE idiom applies "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." Can AI, which today cannot spell blueberry, replace humans? Obviously no. AI is a ridiculous toy, and limited tool. Fun to play with, useful in narrow circumstances. In application it deletes your entire inbox. Like an over engineered tool, it's also absurdly expensive, destined to be shelved next to the Juicero and the Presto Hotdogger.

? Claude spell "blueberry" for me.

  b-l-u-e-b-e-r-r-y                

? count the number of b's and r's in that word and tell me the result.

  - b's: 2 (positions 1 and 5)                                         
  - r's: 2 (positions 7 and 8)                                         
                                                                       
  Total: 4                                                             

WTF are you talking about? Perhaps by "today" you mean a really, really long time ago in technology terms.

Extraordinary claims indeed:

> From there, he moves into the book’s finest passages, about feeling. Feeling, Pollan convincingly argues, actually precedes computation as a necessary condition of consciousness.

lol. See you in the food line in a decade.

Implying that AI is going to make everyone not adopting it irrelevant is exactly why people resist it. You're not only participating in Rocco's Basilisk, you're even shit talking for it.
