In biology we've been using machine learning for a long time now so the AI super hype out there is pretty funny to me. It's for sure useful with stuff like predicting protein folding and analyzing genes and stuff, but it's all hyper-specific stuff just like it has its always been. Good for removing tedium for sure as its the reason we can even know the human genome because it would take literally forever to sequence it without modern tech, which we did in the in the 90s and finished in 2003.
My big hope is that all this hype will get people to invest in proteonomic technology which is 100% a great use case for AI and also the future.
