> AI is awesome as a consumer. You can just build whatever bespoke thing you want. It can walk you through a myriad of home improvement projects.

I hear AI is especially awesome in domains you personally don't understand.

Yep! I’ve made so many custom apps for myself and family. I’ve made lots of purchases informed by AI that I would otherwise have been too overwhelmed to research. I’ve indexed all my bookshelves like a library just by taking a video and having AI build the entire analysis and label printing pipeline.

Yes, but unironically. It's a fantastic tool for learning. Better than Wikipedia or Google search.

I've used it as a fabulous tool to learn so many new things. From walking step by step me through rebuilding an electric motor, to reviewing and explaining my child's medical reports.
