alt Hacker NewsSo people had this drive to use tokens, and once they experienced the release from using the tokens they went into a refractory period where their reasoning is no longer being overridden by the need to use tokens? And later I guess they'll start to feel more and more of a need to use tokens and this will repeat?
Or is it just a throwaway phrase that makes no sense?
We’ll see if the cycle holds true for tokens or LLMs specifically, but for sure there is a larger “new sexy tech” cycle with a strongly emotional output===outcomes metrics irrationality phase to it.
