I go back and forth. I share your amazement. I used Gemini Deep Research the other day and was blown away. It claimed to go read 20 websites, I showed its "thinking" and steps. Its conclusions at each step. Then it wrote a large summary (several pages)
On the other hand, I saw github recently added Copilot as a code reviewer. For fun I let it review my latest pull request. I hated its suggestions but could imagine a not too distant future where I'm required by upper management to satisfy the LLM before I'm allowed to commit. Similarly, I've asked ChatGPT questions and it's been programmed to only give answers that Silicon Valley workers have declared "correct".
The thing I always find frustrating about the naysayers is that they seem to think how it works today is the end if it. Like I recently listened to an episode of Econtalk interviewing someone on AI and education. See lives in the UK and used Tesla FSD as an example of how bad AI is. Yet I live in California and see Waymo mostly working today and lots of people using it. I believe she wouldn't have used the Tesla FSD example, and would possibly have changed her world view at least a little, if she'd updated on seeing self driving work.
