The hype was totally justified for AI now that coding has been completely transformed for the most part.

Trying to “correct the hype” just looks like clowning in hindsight.

It’s like people in 1990s were trying to correct the internets hype: oh you know it won’t change anything and the tech bros want to create hype out of nothing!

So it’s not neutral to be anti hype for AI. It is just wrong.

Those of us who were actually there in the late '90s also remember the insane overhype, grifting, and fraud that led to the dotcom bubble and then the painful dotcom bust afterwards that took the entire industry years to recover from. That pattern is playing itself out again.

Those who analogize today's AI frenzy to the internet adoption frenzy of the '90s in a positive light abjectly fail to understand what an incredibly bad look that is.

Ok Sam.
