Normal people don't use VS Code either... what's a silly article

I don't use a scalpel... so I guess scalpels are stupid and Surgeons are idiots?

    If a scalpel manufacture became 10% (currently AI is at this level) of our total economy but only .006% (percentage of surgeons to population) of people needed them it would be a major problem.

    Because everyone is using this ai. They just don’t realize it yet.

    If you’re buying from me you’re paying for generative ai and that’s going to be the case for most businesses. I hate yet to meet a business owner not using it. Our small business centers have classes on how to use it.

    The majority of people are not using AI as in AI models like Claude or Chatgpt. This could change in the future.

    The majority of people are being USED by AI though. This is not a positive thing.

    You have to remember that the current investment level assumes that somehow everyone is going to use the AI stuff that much. It won't do if the only heavy usage is code generation.
