The first link is openai, who uh, might be a little biased.

The second link looks lab-sponsored.

The third link is a blog post of a lot of hype and little substance. (I tried fable twice and I was unimpressed)

I'd love to see an example of something someone made that is not affiliated with these corporations.

The thing is, I imagine there ARE examples, AI isn't completely useless, but the amount of signal around this vs the hype noise is out of control. My guess is 99% of what's built with AI is useful to approximately one person. When I hear AI boosters talk it sounds like there's an entire economy of billion dollar corporations I never noticed, and then I usually found out someone got excited because they prompted Claude to make a flight simulator (where the plane flies sideways)

It’s very subjective, so there’ll be endless debates about this. It’s a speed boost, to some that is amazing to others it’s bleh.

All my examples are private which also probably applies to many other folks here. In my personal projects and friends stealth startups that are greenfield, the boost is 5-10x for coding. For my midsized enterprise employer, we have tracking of over a hundred diverse projects and the average reduction in dev years to completion is about 50%. Not 10x, but not chump change either.

		You know, even before AI whenever I heard someone be like "my business idea is so revolutionary I MUST KEEP IT A SECRET" my eyes would roll out of my head. I promise you, your ideas are not nearly as amazing as you think they are and absolutely nobody wants to steal them.
