Look for the ways that AI works, and it can be a powerful tool. Try and figure out where it still fails, and you will see nothing but hype and hot air.
Perfectly put, IMO.
I know arguments from authority aren't primary, but I think this point highlights some important context: Dr. Hossenfelder has gained international renown by publishing clickbait-y YouTube videos that ostensibly debunk scientific and technological advances of all kinds. She's clearly educated and thoughtful (not to mention otherwise gainfully employed), but her whole public persona kinda relies on assuming the exclusively-critical standpoint you mention.
I doubt she necessarily feels indebted to her large audience expecting this take (it's not new...), but that certainly does seem like a hard cognitive habit to break.
