> I don't know whether consumers/buyers are demanding that, or what. Consumers aren't demanding it, investors are. They see the hype and ridiculous amounts of money being invested into AI startups, and they're afraid of missing out, so they throw their own money in. No time to stop and think about it, there's too much hype and things are moving too fast. Then other investors see even more money being thrown in, and throw more money in themselves - monkey see, monkey do. Repeat ad infinitum and the next thing you know, majority of venture capital is being blindly funneled into anything AI related. If you're leading some unrelated company and paying attention to where all this money is flowing, the path forward is obvious: simply become an AI company. Doesn't matter if you're actually building something valuable with it or not, because as long as your landing page fulfills a certain quota of AI buzzwords, the investors won't care. They only care about making the line go up, because it's good when the line goes up. It's a bubble.
