AI will probably end up much like NFTs.  It is mostly hype, there is good, there is bad but at the end of the hype the truly useful aspects of it remain.  In the case of NFTs, I do not even know if there is any useful aspect.  For AI, it will likely remain solid in areas where it can actually help.  Have you ever interacted with an AI?  Have you seen what it can do?  Sometimes it can surprise you by how much it can do, other times it may be surprisingly stupid.  I doubt it will work as good as a group of human minds could.  It may help with precision, but even there you may see errors.  Humans will stop rather quickly when an error occurs, but if an AI thinks there is no error, it continues to do what it should not do potentially causing way more damage and expenses than a group of employees could.

Further more, what even is AI?  People barely even know what it is.  Nowadays every thing that is programmed is called that way for marketing purposes.
