Chatbot letdown: Hype hits rocky reality (www.axios.com)

Grumbles about generative AI's shortcomings are coalescing into a "trough of disillusionment" after a year and a half of hype about ChatGPT and other bots.
Why it matters: AI is still changing the world — but improving and integrating the technology is raising harder and more complex questions than first envisioned, and no chatbot has the magic answers.
Driving the news: The hurdles are everything from embarrassing errors, such as extra fingers or Black founding fathers in generated images, to significant concerns about intellectual property infringement, cost, environmental impact and other issues.

“outside of a few areas such as coding, companies have found generative AI isn't the panacea they once imagined.”

It certainly helps with coding, but a human still needs to fix all the mistakes.

Yeah, and that's not going away for coding or any other place that finds a way to implement these systems anytime soon.
