I have seen AI improve the quality and velocity of my wife's policy analysis dramatically.

She doesn't like using Claude, but she accepts the necessity of doing so, and it reduces 3-month projects to 2-week projects. Claude is an excellent debating partner.

Crypto? Blockchain? No-one sceptical could ever see the point of either, unless and until their transaction costs were less than that of cash. That... has not happened, to put it mildly.

These things are NOT the same.

that was not the sentiment people had in 2017. they were almost certain every major visa card provider and payment gateway on the planet will scrap fiat cash and adopt crypto just like how they are all thinking about every major software company adopting AI. Dont forget hindsight bias
