The quoted thread argues the barrier to AI diffusion isn't model capability but three progressively rigid layers: most people don't understand what AI can do; they need to rethink how they work, deconstructing and delegating tasks like a manager; and human preference—people still want to do things themselves. The poster adds that people calling AI "just a tool" are stuck at that first comprehension barrier.
