I think this is the cause for the division in the perception of how useful AI is.
If you work in a field with mostly proprietary implementations of solutions, the top model aren't going to be all that helpful. The models won't have the domain knowledge, because open source code doesn't exist for most domains, because there's very real competitive advantage in keepings code/processes, that aren't trivially implemented, a secret!
I think proprietary data is the new moat, because that's where the vast majority of useful domain knowledge exists.
