This article seems to be referring to the newest LLMs and the associated craze around generative AI in particular, rather than demonstrating any insight or deep knowledge about A.I. type systems, including Machine Learning, neural networks, inference engines, expert systems, etc. etc.
The reality is that A.I. systems have pervaded our lives for decades. Businesses have implemented A.I. at all sorts of levels, whether or not it was formally called or considered A.I., they've done it.
And if you only knew how pervasive and common it's been for this long period of time, you may begin to doubt whether your life is worse because of it. Perhaps your life is the same. Perhaps your life is even better, because you've actually been able to get things done, as a consumer, as a citizen, thanks to A.I. systems churning in the background and presenting a uniform interface to you and the human droids you've encountered on the front-lines.
There is currently a huge circus going on around LLMs and generative type A.I. These are not the be-all, end-all of the technology, and it's disingenuous for myopic authors like this to limit the conversation around it.
The interesting bit is slightly in the future AI like what will be around in a year or two. People say LLMs aren't a big deal because they can't do this or that but things will get fixed up and there are other algorithms.
