The worst kind of tech hype is when something is portrayed as inevitable and unstoppable, with criticism or doubt blithely dismissed as "they don't get it".

Just because a giant tech company pours vast amounts of money down a toilet, that doesn't mean the toilet is going to start spewing gold coins into the air.

@FediThing tbf the metaverse is still here, just that everyone who isn't called #vrchat flopped hilariously
Similarly I think that, after the hype passed and all of those #ai bs blow up, it will still remain some reasonable applications, at the very least better digital assistants and better speech to text, that we won't call ai anymore
