    I’ve given up attending AI conferences, events and meetups in my city for this exact reason. Show up for a talk called something like “Advances in AI” or “Inside AI” by a supposed guru from an AI company, get a 3 hour PowerPoint telling you to stop making PowerPoints by hand and start using ChatGPT to do it, concluding with a sales pitch for their 2-day course on how to get rich creating Kindle ebooks en masse
