It's the fault of the manufacturer, but that is a distinction without a difference. OpenAI has marketed it as an "everything" tool, whereas McMaster-Carr have been more conservative about the capabilities of theirs.

An electric drill's capabilities are known, in the way AI's is not. There's no drill bit coming in Q4 that will let you drill into steel for example. But there will be a GPT 4.5 or something that will add new capabilities.

I'm not sure I buy that.

After so many disappointments in the tech universe (and with some AI winter in the past) people in the industry should not be naive to the point of thinking that OpenAI would solve all the industry's problems.

>> OpenAI has marketed it as an "everything" tool

That's what all companies do all the time. Should we blame capitalism?
