    the reason is they’re selling sci fi dreams of robot servants even though these dreams are lies.

    We’ve seen the same with chatbots, I guess. Objectively speaking, they perform worse at most tasks than regular search engines, databases, dedicated machine learning-based tools etc. However, they sound humanoid (like overly sycophantic human office workers, to be more precise), thus the hype.
