The author argues against the over-hype of AI models, stating recent advances in large language models (LLMs) are genuinely impactful. Interacting with various LLMs has increased their productivity by at least 50%, particularly in coding tasks. They provide a long list of practical applications where LLMs have demonstrated utility, such as automating code conversions, learning new frameworks, and creating entire applications. Despite criticisms, the author emphasizes LLMs' real, tangible benefits in enhancing productivity, especially for mundane and repetitive tasks.
