Looks like AI is finally diving into the trough of disillusionment.
I don't think it's the 'employee destroying, we're going to be playing in our gardens while AI robots do all our work for us' level that AI CEO's have been proclaiming but it is very useful
I would put it top 4 after Google (1999), the internet and smartphones in terms of usefulness, I'm using it every day

Uuh, correction, it has a negative impact on employment. Even Musk admitted it recently.
Among CEOs? Probably true. Workers are being outsourced in droves though.
