> And then I pull up HN / LinkedIn / X / Substack where everyone is telling me that this is the new AI economy and the tech can't possibly flop
Really? It feels like most people are talking about an AI bubble, with a vocal minority in opposition.
If most people are talking about a bubble, then...
The public opinions on AI are split between two camps
the folk who don’t like AI slop forced in every product and media (creative/artistic AI backlash)
And the people who see the power of LLMs for coding, investigative work, science
I think there will be a crash with the creative side and all the companies that just adopted it without a real plan (FOMO) and sunk millions into it too quickly
But the actual tech is real and never going away. This is not a dot com bubble. This is a paradigm shift for people who know how to leverage an LLM effectively
