A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Nobody said that about nfts. Maybe s couple of foolish kids and shysters but nobody ever took them seriously.
Maybe later on, but in the beginning everyone was hyping NFTs and companies were trying thousands of different ways to put NFTs onto their platform. The only difference is what side you are on.
I'm not saying NFTs are like AI. AI has actual potential. I'm just saying lot of technologies are more hype than substance. My life has changed zero percent since AI came out. If anything it's been more annoying and made things like Internet searches more frustrating. And when I saw that new ad for Google Gemini as they vaguely tell you what it can even do or be used for, the same thought came to my mind, "Yeah, but what is it even for? Do you guys even know?"
It's for whatever you want to use it for. Personally I use it continuously. Googling and just getting a bunch of links to shift through is a waste of time and money.
