We do, but much of computer science is still inaccessible to the layperson. The education gap only continues to grow.

I think it's surprising how much science jargon we've been able to cram into common english thus far without losing too many people. It just seems that, for now, LLMs are too convincingly close to science fiction for people to not be misled by their false intuitions and fears.
