My teen son found ways around all the gizmo barriers we tried to put up because he devoted many hours a day planning his way around us, and sure enough out-MacGyver'd us. I wouldn't directly call him a "tech whiz", but rather determined enough to google around to find cracks in a system.

We suspect he bought $10 devices off eBay or from friends, being cheap due to cracked screens or cosmetic defects, and hacked into the neighbor's wifi. We took the lock off his door, but he barricaded it with furniture. Or he'd lock himself into a different room.

it needs a lot of review and it can waste time taking you in circles.

More are saying, "AI can save a lot of time if you just know how to use it right". Every fad/bubble that faded used that in their last throes. It might even be true, but the skill may be hard to learn and/or transfer among the top practitioners.

If AI taxes your brain even more, then it's not doing its job of being "intelligent", it's forcing humans to try to be more intelligent to adjust to AI idiosyncrasies.

People often overestimate short-term tech improvement and underestimate medium to long-term improvement.

Most investors don't want a long-term payoff, they have other options that are more likely to pay off in the shorter term. I doubt most quantum investors would accept a 40-year return if they knew that was the future.
