Evan explores the underwhelming impact of AI thus far, despite advancements like GPT-4 and massive funding injections. While AI has enabled productivity gains through buttons that automate tasks like writing emails or code, this incremental innovation falls short of the promised revolution. To truly transform workflows, AI needs to move beyond enhancing existing software to automating entire processes or rendering them obsolete. The 'button-ification' of AI underscores that we're still in the training wheels phase, having reduced a potentially transformative technology to a feature within our current workflows.
