    It’s not “widely misunderstood”, it’s been widely hyped by the people actively selling it. The tech bros are pumping and dumping it, just like with every other tech panacea.

    It’s not the public, it’s the snake oil salesmen.

      That’s what I am saying. The buyers wildly misunderstand it. The seller presents it with a very effective and misleading pitch.

      Look at the Intuit CEO who just fired 10% of their labor to pivot to AI to um, “give financial advise.” And then goes on to say any other company who doesn’t do the same will fall behind and fail. Time will tell but I am going to go with, people will laugh when Intuit is on fire.
