I get it, being mind blown in this industry is getting further apart with time. It is just that the industry is becoming mature, we have picked most of the low hanging fruit and now it is a case of refining the refinded. Triple distilled design in action. More broadly this is a middle aged industry and unfortunately it is leading to some mid life crisis moments like metaverse, crypto hype and AI everything but generally it is still in decent shape, at least when you ignore some details.
The last time I was blown away by any tech would have been the first time using generative AI stuff, yes we figured out its limits, but just that feeling of being able to just type something and just have these thing created on demand was wild. The time before that, I couldnt really say, it has been that long. Maybe seeing realtime raytracing on commodity hardware and even that wasnt ground breaking.
In a way it us like the 10th season of a sitcom, we know all the characters and it is familiar but nothing much is new or fresh any more. The jokes are still fine and the catch phrases are there but it all just feels same-ish. That is ok so long as that is your expectation.
