As someone who is lactose intolerant, with a kid with dairy allergy your last sentence is more apt than probably intended. Dairy allergy is different to lactose intolerance and not helped by lactaid at all...

So I read your last sentence as:

"It's like seeing the problem but instead of taking the time to understand and resolve it, you just take some vague voodoo-like mitigation action and keep going through the motions."

Which to me, sums up most people's approach to using AI. Maybe VoodooAI would be a good brand, it's about as far as most people understand it...
