Amara's Law still holds, though - technology is overestimated in the short run and underestimated in the long run.
I don't think Tensorflow et al have been busts, or have even fallen short of what experts expected from them. They were just never consistent with the slavering hype they got from university press offices, tech journalists, and startup hucksters.
I'm less convinced that blockchains will have a major long-run impact, but I expect solving the double-spend problem will prove useful one way or another.
