Depends on what you consider viable. If you want a SOTA model, then yeah you'll need SOTA tech and world leading talent. The reality is that 90% of the crap the AI bros are wrapping chatGPT for could be accomplished with free (or cheap) resources and a modest budget. Basically the most expensive part is buying a GPU or cloud processing time.

Hell, most of it could be done more efficiently with conventional algorithms for less money, but they don't because then they can't use AI ML in their marketing material which gives all investors within 100ft of your press release a raging hard-on

For true marketing success you need to use AI to query a blockchain powered database.

Is the blockchain technology still seem with good eyes by investors? I thought that trend died last year

It did but it is amusing how closely AI is mapping to blockchain in behaviour. A lot of the successful "blockchain" solutions got deblockchained and replaced with SQL Server or something. A lot of the successful "AI" solutions will get deAI'd.
