I'm not sure if it's intentional or not, but the Actually Useful AI community rarely gets any post on AI that's actually useful. Is this just a reflection of the popularity of this community or a reflection of the AI field in general?

I don't think that's true at all.
A couple of days ago I read a post about someone using ChatGPT to generate commit messages from the diff. That's pretty cool.
Chatbots are also surprisingly helpful. Today's technology is already good enough to put together working expert systems. I'd love to have something like a chatbot that was fed something like all the papers from one or more academic journals related to a specialized field, and be able to ask it open-ended questions.
I think that nowadays the limit for actually useful AI is the imagination of those who work on today's cutting edge AI. It would be cool to hear more about those.
You are being silly and gullible. These chatbots just make shit up. You can't learn anything from them. It's literally worse than just googling the question and believing whatever nonsense you read on Quora. They don't "know" anything, they're a particularly advanced form of your phone's predictive text feature.
As someone who interacts with "these chatbots", the "shit" that they "make up" is very useful to onboard onto topics and find paths forward. They are the closest there is to expert systems, and currently there is no alternative that comes close to the value they provide.
Those who can't learn in general also won't learn in specifics.
lmao
