Yes. AI is a tool, it’s supposed to be used a certain way, anything else is a misunderstanding og what AI is. You have to aim it in the direction you want it to go, not expect it to solve all your problems magically

AI isn’t “supposed to be” anything (other than “intelligent”). It just turned out that LLMs have to be used in particular ways to be useful. Nobody planned or designed them to be that way. We all as users are put to do the job of discovering the ways.

LLMs are increasingly not tools anymore but agents. The difference is still one of degree, but it's clear in which direction we are currently moving. It was even clear to some people 10 years ago: https://gwern.net/tool-ai
