Market shows that the market buys into hype, not value.

Market shows that hype is a cycle and the AI hype is nearing its end.

How can you tell when the cycle is ending?

[–] riskable@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

When one of two things happens:

  • A new hype starts to replace it (can happen fast though!)
  • The hype starts to specialize into subcategories of the hype (e.g. AI images, AI videos, AI text generation)

When "AI" hype dies down we are likely to see "AI" removed from various topics because enough people know and understand the hyped parent topic. It'll just be "image generation", "video generation", "generated text", etc.
