Ask HN: Is anyone else burnt out on AI?

ItтАЩs not a post to deny that the field is moving and is very interesting to follow but itтАЩs just become too much. Every week thereтАЩs several new things, most examples are cherry picked, benchmarks are blown out etc. I run a software company that has not added any AI features, mostly because the usefulness seems to fall below the bar for value that most of our features try to maintain. I use ChatGPT personally for random searches and Cursor + whatever model is deemed best at the time but even with that it takes a lot of work to get something valuable out of it in day to day. I feel like IтАЩm losing my mind when I see startups posting 10m ARR numbers in just 6 months or whatever. IтАЩm hearing from VCтАЩs churn is 15-30% in many of these companies and theyтАЩre far from profitable but the growth is just wild. Do I succumb and just add yet another text generation that maps to an object like fill-in-the-blank app of the week? It feels disingenuous but even companies I know and respect are adding questionable тАЬagentтАЭ features that rarely work. Anyway, how are you feeling?
