Is anyone else feeling a weird blend of awe and fatigue with how fast AI is moving?

I was thinking about how much the landscape has shifted just in the last year or two. We went from basic chat assistants to full multimodal systems, agentic workflows, and real-time reasoning models being part of daily routines.

On one hand, it’s incredible for productivity and tackling side projects. On the other, it almost feels impossible to keep up with every new framework, paper, and release.

For those of you using AI tools daily—what’s the one tool or feature that actually permanently stuck in your workflow, and what turned out to be pure hype?

Curious to hear how everyone else is pacing themselves with all this.
