I've been trying out AI over the past month (mostly because of management trying to force it down my throat), and have not found it to be terribly conducive to actually helping me on most tasks. It still evidences a lot of the failure modes I was talking about 3 years ago. And yet the entire time, it's the AI boosters who keep trying to say that any skepticism is invalid because it's totally different than how it was three months ago.

I haven't seen a lot of goalpost moving on either side; the closest I've seen is from the most hyperbolic of AI supporters, who are keeping the timeline to supposed AGI or AI superintelligence or whatnot a fairly consistent X months from now (which isn't really goalpost-moving).
