- code_runner 3y agoThe word business is doing a lot in this sentence. Crypto finally has been exposed for what it was all along and now the next hot thing is AI. AI is real though… but everyone who thinks forking over massive amounts of money to OAI is good business is going to be sorely disappointed when prices increase and/or apis go away all together. You need to be building something of your own based on the tech. The hallmark of crypto bro turned ai influencer is doing none of the work themselves… just like they let everyone else mine the crypto and then basically just stole it.
- dooraven 3y agoI think it'll depend on company / product, there is awful crypto influencers and token shills that will jump on to the next hype train but I doubt you'd call Ethereum as a useless product. There will be tangible real use cases for Gen AI as there are tangible use cases for blockchains and crypto and there will also be fakes and peddlers who want to sell you bs.
- code_runner 3y agoI have no idea what etherium accomplishes for anybody if I’m honest
- maeln 3y agoI think the meaning behind OPs words is that you find some type of startup who tend to pivot & circle around "hype tech", rarely managing to produce any product or service of value before pivoting to next hype bubble.
