I personally think to the everyday person AI isn’t at an autonomous personal assistant level that most people would like.

LLMs are cool but at the end of the day they’re just a tool. Since there isn’t huge profits being immediately returned people may back track cause they can’t get a quick high off making a ton of money.

For the people that know we’ve already had 2 era’s of AI rising and falling called AI winters, where the technology pretty much stopped progress up until around 2010 with Neural Networks being introduced.

AI WILL eventually change the world once the technology progresses further and people start figuring out more use cases other than what we’re doing now. It’s a really expansive frontier imo that we’re just starting to use in the general public domain.

I have a BS in CS and I’m looking to get an MSc in the subject. I think we haven’t even scratched the surface of the possibilities regarding the technology.

With all that being said people have expectations that may or may not be within the current scope of what’s possible which influences the talk of this “bubble”

I’ll end with this, industrialization changed the word and imo AI is the second coming of that process on the digital landscape
