I'm not disillusioned I'm just being realistic. As opposed to the Dotcom boom, AI is top down rather than bottom up. Very few startups are finding success and if they do it's short lived because it gets replaced or integrated natively by newer capabilities from existing major players. There will be success stories but I haven't seen many novel ideas created using new AI tech that are not just an overlay on top of an LLM that people aren't willing to pay for. I think the right state of mind is to explore and keep thinking about real world applications, even though at the moment it's basically just every existing saas inserting AI into their existing products.
