I have also seen some AI things that are "mind blowing". Some of the movie editing software does some decent effects that would take a human much longer to do. But then we have the generative pictures with 6 fingers and the numerous cases where lawyers have submitted briefs where AI invented cases out of thin air.

Mind-blowing? Sure

Useful? Sometimes

Reliable? Rarely.
