You must be living on a different planet if you think the adoption and societal impact Groupon was ever remotely comparable to AI.

I assure you as someone working FoH at the time, Groupon's impact on me was far greater than AI ever could be.

I’m talking about how it impacts society in general, not you specifically. Also, I don’t think you appreciate how deeply AI will affect your life in the future.

The next time you get a CT for example, it might be an AI system that finds a lung nodule and saves your life.

Or for a negative possibility, consider how deepfakes could seriously degrade politics and the media landscape.

There are massive potential upsides and downsides to AI that will almost certainly impact you more than a coupon company.
