    Marketing does not mean functionality. AI is absolutely being sold to the public and enterprises as something that can solve everything. Obviously it can’t, but it’s being sold that way. I would bet the average person would be surprised by this headline solely on what they’ve heard about the capabilities of AI.

      I don’t think anyone is so stupid to believe current ai can solve everything.

      And honestly, I didn’t see any marketing material that would claim that.

        You are both completely over estimating the intelligence level of “anyone” and not living in the same AI marketed universe as the rest of us. People are stupid. Really stupid.

          I don’t understand why this is so important, marketing is all about exaggerating, why expect something different here.

            It’s not important. You said AI isn’t being marketed to be able to do everything. I said yes it is. That’s it.

              My point is people aren’t expecting AGI. People have already tried them and understand what the general capabilities are. Businesses today even more. I don’t think exaggerating the capabilities is such an overarching issue, that anyone could call the whole thing a scam.
