Noticeably worse, but you can have so much more.

I used it a decent amount at my last job to write test reports that had a lot of similar text with minor changes.
I also use it for dnd to help me quickly make the outlines of side characters & flesh out my world.
Have you seen neuro sama?
I use it to explain dumber questions i have about math and coding concepts.
I use it to write scripts.
I used it to interpret my rental lease and calculate penalties and see whats covered by my landlord vs myself.
Like any new tool it is being abused to hurt the working class by the wealthy. It does have useful aspects if used properly but it's pretty overshadowed by all the awful uses imo
The applications of what you call ai are absolutely limitless. But to be clear what you're calling "AI" isn't AI in terms of what you might want it to be what you're referring to are large language models or LLM's. Which aren't ai, not yet.
It's short sighted statements like this that really get my blood boiling.
If humanity actually achieves artificial intelligence it'll be the equivalent of the printing press or agriculture. It'll be like inventing the superconductor or micro transistors all over again. Our world will completely change for the better.
If your interactions with these llms have been negative, I can only assume that you have a strong bias against this type of technology and have simply not used it in a way that's applicable for you.
I personally use llms pretty much daily in my life and they have been nothing but an excellent tool.

As a college student, best experience I've had is just generating stories that you can easily tell are AI written by use of specific language.
Second best was when I tried taking pokemon from older generations, taking their BST, telling an AI (perplexity) that I wanna give them gen 5 BST, providing a spreadsheet with all gen 5 pokemon w/BST and each individual stat, and using whatever it gives me as a baseline for making BST edits.
Otherwise, I wouldn't say I'm a big fan of AI since I don't have many uses for it myself.
What's BST?
Base stat total. I really don't care too much for all these different acronyms, but I watch a fair bit of pokemon challenge content so I hear it more often than I care for.
Nope
It’s really useful for churning out some basic code. For searching the web, it’s providing better results than Google these days.
