It feels like the early days of crypto. It promised to be the revolution, but ended up being used for black markets, with malware that use your Madison to mine crypto or steal crypto.

I wonder if in few years from now, we will look back and wonder how we got psyoped into all this

I hope so but it's unlikely. AI actually has real world use cases, mostly for devaluing human labor.

Unlike crypto, AI is real and is therefore much more dangerous.

Well, I agree. But I also hope that maybe we find out that it simply is not economically viable to AI all the things

You're certainly not going to hear that on HackerNews.

This is the age of AGI. Better start filling out that Waffle House application.

Na, Clankers will take over the job flipping flapjacks at WH. You'll have to get into/record fights with the guests to earn Youtube tips on your videos for a living.
