There is some benefit. But only if the AI is compartmented into a particular software environment to do specific tasking in specific conditions. Like diagnostics, modeling,
Everything else I see in Chatbots or "Gen AI" is basically queries on an LLM.
Okay, we all know what the Tech Bros are trying to do.
Have AI basically be a Siri or Alexa bot advanced enough in "reactive" chats responses to seem humanoid in their answers, that can then be loaded as an AI OS into humanoid robots to create android workforces or harems to keep them company and serve their needs or whims.
But not too independent, mind you.
Here's my "It's really AI !" test:
When an AI can can direct my "personal robot" to go into any random kitchen when I'm out and about on a visit or B&B, find the good coffee beans, grinder, whatever type coffee maker, the "right sized" mug, the right brand of cream, cocoa, and sugar for my Morning Mocha.
Then check the coffee maker and mug for cleanliness, grind the beans to the desired consistency and pour enough clean water in whatever type of coffee maker is to brew the coffee the way I like it - and finally, pour it in the mug with the amount of cream, 80% pure cocoa, and sugar I like, and serve it to me at the right temperature for the type of morning it is.
And it would be able to jigger any measurements if faced with options to the cream or cocoa I desired was available to still have a palatable cup of my Morning Mocha.
And maybe even be able to find and make me two slices of strawberry toast, if it's the weekend.
That's a proper Gen AI agent.
