I'm walking right into this, but really? Dropbox came out in a post-FTP world, a post NFS-enabled world, hell, even a post-Active-Directory world. The biggest thing Dropbox got right was cutting off the sharp edges from network-attached storage, and even that wasn't very revolutionary back then or today.
If you want to compare AI to any product at all I would hope that it's something more revolutionary or technically interesting than Dropbox.
