Most of the "might actually become useful" is coming from "okay, this technology won't bring us a JARVIS-like AI assistant, what can it actually do?". This is all, while it has one of the worst public images of all technologies that doesn't invole it being a weapon: it's main users being the far-right and anyone else that thinks artists are "born with their talent", thus can do it as a "weekend hobby" while working at least one full-time job (preferably one that involves work injuries and getting dirty, because the same people like to fetishize those), if they're not outright hostile against the concept of art creation which they simplify to "what if" types of ideas.
