  As far as She-Hulk goes yes. This isn't going to replace Netflix shows, it is going to create entire new industries, just like how when YouTube came out no one thought that some 12 year old kid named Jimmy was going to build a 9 figure business on top of it.

  The article is from 2015, so yes, you are right, it is easy to say that we have not had insane changes since 2015. And certainly there have not been insane changes between yesterday and today. But if things start changing just 1% more each day it becomes a big deal within a few years.

  I suppose that’s how you measure things? 250 years ago we were mostly farmers and our society had barely changed in thousands of years. Now look at us. 25 years ago most people lived in a pre-digital world. Now there are 6 billion smartphone users. 2.5 months ago AI art was a weird curiosity and now John Oliver is doing skits on it. If this isn’t crazy then what is crazy?
