I’ve been paying for Claude Pro for about 6 months. But slowly, I’ve felt like it’s just a huge waste of time. Even if I have to do a few independent internet searches and read through a few dozen stack overflow and doc pages, my own conclusion is so much more reliable and accurate than anything an LLM could ever spit out.
Not even OpenAI is making money right now. I believe this is because the technology is inherently flawed and cannot scale to meet the demand. It simply consumes too much electricity to ever be economically viable, not to mention the serious environmental concerns.
One major reason is that generative AI tools often fail to match real work processes. The report described “brittle workflows, lack of contextual learning, and poor alignment with day-to-day operations.” Unlike humans, most generative AI models cannot retain past feedback or build new reasoning ability over time. They also struggle to adapt to context or transfer lessons across different tasks.
