It is completely useless as presented by the major players who atrocities trying to jam models that are trying to everything at the same time and that is what we always talk about when discussing AI.
We aren't talking about focused implementations that are Wikipedia to a certain set of data or designed for specific purposes. That is why we don't need nuance, although the reminder that we aren't talking about smaller scale AI used by humans as tools is nice once in a while.
