Because unlike crypto and other tech fads, it’s hostile:
- job losses are immediately associated with AI in news
- privacy invasions, AI profiling, AI aggregators, etc.
- annoyance, AI chat bubble, AI useless tech support, AI interviews, etc.
- bandwagon “wrappers”, you know, wrap gpt api in saas and try to sell it in subscriptions, flooding show HN
- slops, slops everywhere. Codes, graphics, you name it.
And a lot more. AI to tech world is what smartphones did to internet, flooding non technical people into technical people’s space and basically ruining the fun part. Additionally, it didn’t bring any substantial breakthrough, in the past 3 years or so, did we have any breakthrough innovation in any sector as a result of AI? Barely, so you end up with a lot of noise flooding the internet, bots now are more than humans.
