    “AI” is the new “blockchain”. It’s a solution looking for a solid problem to tackle, with some niche applications

      I mean, at least Ai has SOME useful applications, the blockchain was just wasting energy for some numbers.

      I just wish people had long enough memories to see the cycle for terms like these. Some new word catches vogue, companies fall over themselves trying to find ways to implement them for shareholders and consumers who have no idea what they actually represent. As that fades, a new term arises… it’s sad.

        And virtual reality gets a free revival every other technology, while we’re at it.

        I’m predicting VR coming back into the limelight, try again, shortly after everyone loses interest in AI.

        Also, I’m still pissed that flying cars aren’t in the limelight more. I was promised daily updates, and I’m not seeing them. That’s the biggest proof that the media is completely disconnected.

    • Blockchain also has problems its solving I recon the whole not bullshit was a psyop by thr us government cos finances that they couldn’t have absolute control over would allow the people to bs free. I recon monero is the best as of present especially since its actually anonymous payments.
