Any tool can be a hammer if you use it wrong enough.

A good hammer is designed to be a hammer and only used like a hammer.

If you have a fancy new hammer, everything looks like a nail.

      True.

      And I get where you’re going, but pipe wrenches are still way too useful in too many situations. AI is a like a disc brake compressor hand tool, being sold as the solution to everything else.

      When I mention how much I like it for compressing a disc brake, I feel like people look at me like I’m crazy for falling off the hype train.

      Edit: And by people, I mean AI hype shill bots, probably.
