The issue is the gap between hype and reality.

Like yeah - I wanna see this agi bull shit happen to just to see what happens to society etc but it’s not happening anytime soon.

So all this constant pumping is annoying AF, cult-like and delululand shit

I am starting to believe the theory that the IT industry (well, the Silicon Valley part) is just chasing the dragon to try and relive the glory days of the early Internet boom. So it's trying to will the next big thing into existence.

Blockchain wasn't it, crypto became a haven for scams so normal people avoided it. AI is just the latest tech to be artificially pumped to make it appear "Silicon Valley" still has the magic.
