> AI is a powerful tool for those who are willing to put in the work.
HN crowd is generally anti-AI, so you're not going to get a lot of positive feedback here.
As a developer and someone who runs my own company, AI helps save me tons of hours - especially with research tasks, code audits - just to see if I've missed something, rapid frontend interface development and so much more if we go beyond the realm of just code.
YMMV but I use ChatGPT even for stuff like cooking recipes based on whatever's inside my fridge. And this maybe just me, but I feel like my usage of Google has probably gone down to 50-60%.
All this for $20 is really insane. Like you said, "people who are willing to put in work" really matters - that usually means being more intentional about your prompts, giving it as much context as possible.
Rather than anti-AI, I think most of the HN crowd are educated enough about underlying technology and it's capabilities to see the snake oil being pushed. Most of us would have given it a good go (and probably still use it daily), just know the difference between its actual limitations and the dreams that are being sold.

Is this a joke? The front page of HN is 99% AI-positive. Things have calmed down a bit but there was a time when it felt like every other article on the front page was promoting AI.
