Summary

The author reflects on being immersed in an AI-saturated online bubble and asks how the average person is actually using AI—if at all.

​ I've been following AI so closely for so long that my entire online feed has become saturated with AI content. Everywhere I look, people are discussing models, agents, automation, coding assistants, and new AI tools. It's gotten to the point where I sometimes wonder if I'm stuck in an AI bubble and have lost touch with what the average person is actually doing. What about the people around you? Friends, family, coworkers, classmates, or clients. How are they actually using AI, if at all? Are they learning new skills, using it at work, building things with it, or is AI still largely irrelevant in their daily lives? I'm curious to hear what the real world outside the AI bubble looks like.
