Saying it’s not a fad is rather ignorant. Sure it has practical uses but it’s also being shoved into literally everything, even if purely by name, with little to no actual improvement.
I don’t disagree with the idea that AI is being shoved into software without much purpose or thought, but that’s got little to do with whether it is here to stay or not. It’s here to stay for its many practical uses, be it new personal assistants like what Apple has shown off with Siri, text summarization like what is being added to browsers, rephrasing/tone checking like what is being added to office software, or code completion and debugging like what is being added to code editors. These applications have proved their worth, and even if some applications are just because hype, these applications are here to stay.

Some of it will stay. Most of it will go. That’s how fads work.
