    I listened to a podcast with a couple smart mathematicians talking about AI recently and this rings true based off what I heard them discuss.

    They hypothesized that only verifiable domains can really see advances due to AI. So mathematics, physics, a load of the other sciences, and medical research. Even programming, as long as you have a pre-designed solution.

    But for problems where you can’t look at a solution and say “yeah, that’s an optimal solution or close to it”, ie basically any business problem; they are much less useful, a big reason being what you mentioned in your comment.
