I'm not sure if it's intentional or not, but the Actually Useful AI community rarely gets any post on AI that's actually useful. Is this just a reflection of the popularity of this community or a reflection of the AI field in general?

From my perspective, LLM, voice recognition and reproduction, and image generation, manipulation, and identification is the majority of AI.

I think that's a very short-sighted view of the subject. You're basically reducing AI to a very narrow set of specific, high-level practical applications of AI, leaving everything out of your personal definition.

The only thing I've deliberately left out is bog standard programming the likes of which I've done for 25 years. Which is why I asked what I'm missing.
