almost all the tech conference schedules around us are peddling AI in one form or another, they mostly abandoned other forms of tech that are actually useful. i see alot of things falling apart after it bursts.
Do you feel like AI and its current form is ever going to go away?
To me it seems like we're well beyond the point of it going away ever. It may never live up to the hype of replacing all the jobs.
We also know that AI companies are footing a large chunk of the bill. Someday those prices are going to crank up and a bunch of work we shovel over to AI will go back to humans.
Heck, it may have peaked already - we may not have any more killer uses to discover. Or maybe we do, and that's partly why I'm here - I'm pretty interested to see if some interesting uses cases emerge. Some really tough or annoying problem that we all hate to do that AI can start actually doing really good work at.
