Yes I feel like many people misunderstand AI capabilities

They think it somehow comes up with the best solution, when really it's more like lightning and takes the path of least resistance. It finds whatever works the fastest, if it even can without making it up and then lying that it works

It by no means creates elegant and efficient solutions to anything

AI is just a tool. You still need to know what you are doing to be able to tell if it's solution is worth anything and then you still will need to be able to adjust and tweak it

It's most useful for being able to maybe give you an idea on how to do something by coming up with a method/solution you may not have known about or wouldn't have considered. Testing your own stuff as well is useful or having it make slight adjustments.

    It finds whatever works the fastest

    For a very lax definition of "works"...

    Kind of agree with the rest of your points. Remember though, that the suggestions it gives you, for things you're not familiar with may very well be terrible ones that are frowned upon. So it's always best to triple check what it outputs, and only use it for broad suggestions.
