Another smarter human pointed this out and it stuck with me: the guys most hyped about AI are good at nothing and thus can't see how bad it is at everything. It's like the Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect.

That's exactly the problem. People who are too stupid to see that AI is actually pretty bad at everything it does think its a fucking genius and they wonder why we still pay people to do stuff. Sadly a LOT of stupid people are in positions of authority in our world.
