Suspicious lack of pro-AI comments here
This is because people here are quietly realizing that they fell for the "token-maxxing" marketing drive which was complete BS for you to gamble more money on tokens as the big AI labs gave heavily subsidized token prices they cannot afford.
Jevon's paradox does not exist at those companies, but it certainly exists at the Chinese AI Labs at Deepseek, Alibaba, z.AI and Xiaomi.
Good callout. All these "trends" in AI were definitely from the AI companies themselves in order to push the sales of more tokens. What's after agent orchestration? Whatever it is, it will involve a big spend.
Luckily, we've seen this before. Doom and gloom when smartphones came out. And then the same again when mobile development was preferred and there was an outcry from the web dev crowd and constant downvoting of phone apps.
