Seems reasonable, people who've used generative AI are more likely to know how good it really is. I find that most of the people who just dismissively call it all "slop" haven't actually tried using it much.

I'm using it more and more and find it very useful. I do a lot of writing for work, AI voice transcription and AI grammar checks are invaluable, not to mention having an AI voice read my writing back as a form of copy editing.

Also great for visual stuff, and for providing sound for videos.

However the hallucination problem is a real roadblock. I would never want to trust the current models of AI with an important decision.
