Washing machines are deterministic. Automation is deterministic. AI is not deterministic. AI is not a tool. AI is destined to be what it is now, a parlor trick designed to passify and amuse.

Driving is not deterministic, yet commercial trucking is a core part of the US economy and definitely a productivity boost over trains, mules, and whatever else was before.
