Amara's law : We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run and underestimate the effect in the long run.
The AI revolution has only just started. The web took years to really find its feet.
Anyone who is calling AI a fizzer is calling the end of the race when the horses have just started out of the gate.
- difosfor 2y agoStill a bubble that will pop though. If only in the short term before things consolidate and mature as with so many other hypes.
- 7thpower 2y agoHot take: It will moderate, but not pop. Infrastructure spending will decrease but a bulk of purchasers are incredibly well funded with revenue sources that are not dependent on GenAI. I have no degree of certainty, but I have seen enough of these takes over the years to always try to imagine the most likely counterfactual.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoThat's still a pop. Internet companies are worth way more today than they were in 2002 when the internet bubble popped.
- andrewstuart 2y agoThere’s many many genuine use cases. It’s not all hype.

- asah 2y agoNot sure why this was downvoted. As an investor, I'm seeing a wave of awesome business applications that were fantasies a few years ago, and now straightforward to build. In particular, apps that rethink entire job functions around the existence of AI-enhanced algorithms. Example: people spend ungodly amounts of time creating marketing materials, and this is all getting automated 10:1 or more.
