What I dislike in hype trains is people who don’t know fundamentals, but sincerely believe their hype is some game-changing invention, while I’m narrow-minded and plain stupid.
The thing with hype trains is you get aboard or get left behind. Maybe they hype leads to a ghost town destination, but as a massive business you’d rather be on the train than not.
It has to be just barely persuasive enough to trigger the hunger for impossible magic.
When I was a kid, I would look for Matrix in computer games. Some sandbox where you can make anything with any laws of physics and as complex as possible and without thinking and it would run fast. It was, ahem, year 2005, computer graphics wouldn’t look so realistic. Well, Second Life exists, but it’s not alive, real humans come there and they are.
Now when there’s a tool to make something appear close to right for AIs, there won’t be a shortage of such scams just like there isn’t with dick enlarging pills.
It might start to be considered stupid in the society, but in secret a lot of people not understanding the fundamentals will still fall for such scams. Just like with dick enlarging pills!

If you’re early enough to actually benefit from the ride,
you’re early enough to do some research, then benefit from the ride.
I like how we’ve seen the Humane AI pin, Rabbit R1 and that stupid Devin AI programmer.
The hype around their possibilities was so high. All of them were varying levels of scams.
