I didn't wanna read the article nor the opinions in it, so I asked ChatGPT.

AI can be seen as a bubble in the sense that there's a lot of hype and excitement surrounding it, often leading to inflated expectations. However, there's also substantial substance and potential for real impact. It's important to navigate through the hype to understand both its capabilities and limitations.

We already have a summirizer bot around. Why you trying to put it out of business like that?

This isn't a summary, I literally asked "what kind of bubble is AI?"

Goddamn, lazier than an ai bot?

Ah, yes, "substantial substance" (for real impact, no less), thanks robo.
