Not really. If anything, I'm frustrated how slowly it's improving. Most new models are just made by pouring more money into the same problem instead of actually inventing anything new.

We have this glorified autocomplete feature and we are treating it for some reason like it would be an artificial general intelligence only because it outputs human like sentences. At the same time, it weakens the quality of the school system, products and services, raises the prices of consumer electronics, fills my internet with slop and destroys natural resources. We are living in a some kind of transitional phase and there are still many problems that have not yet been solved and it's really frustrating.
