Is it? Chatgpt and variants are a great product at least. I use it every day. My wife (nontech) also does it.

May I suggest reading the article before commenting on it? As your question is answered in the first sentience.

Careful, you'll get told off by the HN Guidelines Brigade who somehow see value in people commenting on an article they haven't read.

...I feel compelled to quote this now... more for the parent of your comment

> Please don't comment on whether someone read an article. "Did you even read the article? It mentions that" can be shortened to "The article mentions that".

I'm not sure the first sentence is correct. "Of course AI is a bubble." If the product is good enough the "every single billboard is advertising some kind of AI company" may just show enthusiasm.

Maybe it will be answered in the first sentience;) Sentient AI would be quite a thing.
