It's too damned useful. About every day I check Gemini and ChatGPT for a word or phrase I can't remember, input some crap and out pops what I was looking for. I use if for a chunk of code I can't get my head around. It's the next Google and everyone wants a piece.
OTOH, I do see a sharp downturn in investment as things shake out. Like to dot.com bubble, there will be winners and losers, but you're spot on. Investors aren't spazzing out on every single opportunity. Still, gonna be some losers.
We can talk about the dangers of AI all night long, but it's here to stay.
similarly when there's some simple arithmetic I can't mentally calculate I use a cloud based coal powered statistical word generator because I don't realize that there are existing dedicated tools for the job and it's easier for me to defecate my stream of consciousness into a chat window than to take my eyes off vertical infinite scrolling video long enough to take basic troubleshooting steps
I agree 100%, and yes there are always losers due to competition and failure to compete. Just like some companies are losing money making cars, but cars are obviously not a bubble.
Maybe the most of the hype is over for now among investors, but AFAIK Nvidia who is the biggest supplier of hardware for it, is not seeing a slowdown in demand.
So maybe it's more a slow down of interest in the media?
