  • While I can’t wait for the AI bubble to pop I am also quite relaxed about the cultural consequences of the wide availability of the tools. The market will sort this out quite efficiently: either the slop does provide value, or it doesn’t. If it doesn’t, people won’t pay for it and it will fade into obscurity. If it does, we’ve found a new application for the technology and increased productivity by a small amount.

    It’s not the technology itself I find so annoying, but rather the relentless push by the invested companies to make it far more ubiquitous than it deserves to be. But that money will run out, rather soon I hope.
