A friend told me today that his teammates believe that AI is a solved problem and there is no risk to using AI to build their apps and indeed using AI in the app itself. And most people I know see many potential perils and pitfalls in GenAI/LLM tools and assistants. And, the teams I have been working with the last few years are not using any AI tools at all. I believe AI is here to stay and we all need to learn how to make it an effective part of our toolbox. But I’m concerned that there’s a perception out there that this is a done deal, we can safely use AI tools. What are other people seeing, thinking?

​@Ramanan ,

Risks like bias, misuse, lack of explainability, and overreliance are still very real. Some teams may rush in, assuming it's plug-and-play, but cautious adoption with awareness of limitations is the smarter path. Others are still hesitant, which also risks falling behind. Balance and critical thinking are key.

yes, absolutely.
