A lot of folks here their stock portfolio propped up by AI companies but think they've been overhyped (even if only indirectly through a total stock index). Some were saying all along that this has been a bubble but have been shouted down by true believers hoping for the singularly to usher in techno-utopia.
These signs that perhaps it's been a bit overhyped are validation. The singularly worshipers are much less prominent and so the comments rising to the top are about negatives and not positives.
Ten years from now everyone will just take these tools for granted as much as we take search for granted now.
Just like cryptocurrency. For a brief moment, HN worshiped at the altar of the blockchain. This technology was going to revolutionize the world and democratize everything. Then some negative financial stuff happened, and people realized that most of cryptocurrency is puffery and scams. Now you can hardly find a positive comment on cryptocurrency.
