ai in the sense of a new and immature techology which is constantly evolving and changing?

How about anything on the web? HTML boon in the 90s. Wordpress and PHP frameworks in the 00's, Javascript frontend shadow doms which require hydration in the 10's, node.js and javascript on the server etc etc.

All techonologies which were not worth jumping in during the initial boom becasue it changed so rapidly and it meant relearning concepts with every new release.

Its the same with ai, some prompt which gave amazing results last year might not now, and you need to be aware of what has changed and the better way to do it now. I prefer to jump in later when things are more mature and I can learn the most stable and liked way of doing something, instead of having to relearn the same thing multiple times as it changes.
