No bubble has deserved to pop as much as AI deserves to

Blockchain and crypto were worse. „AI” has some actual use even if it’s way overblown.

I'm not even understanding what AI is at this point because there's no delineation between moderately sophisticated algorithms and things that are orders of magnitude more complex.

I mean, if something like multisampling came out today we'd all know how it'd be marketed

clever algorithm is a good heuristic
statistics on steroids is machine learning
using a transformer model is AI (for now)
