You miss the point. Were you around when Apple products first came to market? The internet? Did you say to yourself, “wow this will change life as we know it - it will reshape how we live our lives, the job market, the world economy” If you did, I hope you’re a billionaire by now. The point is, we are just on the cusp Al. As with past Technology revolutions, from where we sit today, the vast majority of people can’t possibly imagine what the possibilities will become. OP doesn’t think AI is a massive disruptor. I do.
