The killer use case is already here! Talk to any software engineer in the industry
There is a difference between replacing a farm with a data center so you can vibe code an app that makes your Spotify experience slightly more efficient and the Industrial Revolution. The killer use cases for this shit simply are not here yet like they were when factories created American cities.

This is the entire point, if you're going to "use AI" for things you can do yourself- why bother trying to do any of it, including (in this case) "playing" fantasy football. Fun killer, creative killer, thought killer

I am continually amused that every ad for AI features a use case that is cringey, embarrassing, or fundamentally useless to the majority of the public.

Not one "killer app" that makes any normal person go "Oh I could really use that!"

ok i still think this is a killer use case for embeddings, yes

I’ve heard that falafel is the killer use case.

What if “the killer use case” for generative AI is raising unprecedented amounts of capital despite having no viable path to profitability??? That use case sure seems to be working unprecedentedly well!

The bigots have been trying to use this one spree event as their proof that trans people are the "problem"...and it turns out that the perpetrator wasn't even trans.

Yeah their discipline to focus on the killer use case (e.g. enterprise contracts w/ claude code) and not get distracted by costly distractions like image/video generation is huge

Je vois ça partout! Le "killer use case" de data centers gros comme des usines soviétiques, c'est que la machine va vous désabonner de services dont vous ne vous servez plus!

If we are already at "dishwashers that are more engaging" as the killer use case for AI, I'm feeling pretty confident in my skepticism.

Watched Woman of the Hour
Netflix sometimes gets this reputation about using stories of real life serial killers with their work, thankfully this one is clever on how to use the case of The Dating Game killer to go after misogyny in a haunting way but not overdo it to become offensive

the thing thats super interesting to me is that claude code is a massively profitable killer use case, but ultimately thats just not *thaaaat* much money
