It could be new. I'm sure there are loads of new start ups offering shitty 'AI' powered solutions that crappy c-suites are switching to because of buzzwords.

Enshittification is a rot that ruins everything for everyone. Even the rich people trying richer will just end suffering from the total collapse of functioning society in the end.

Capitalism is a mental illness.

My job isn't bullshit, but management has no concept of the true amount of time it takes to do my job. Depending on projects I can go from 2 hours of work a week up to around 60 hours of work a week. With the majority of weeks being under 40 hours. And yet management somehow thinks that they're giving me 8 hours of work to do every day despite them regularly being the blocker to new work.

Also feels like Gen z is more prudish and so, even if they don't really agree with these movements, they also aren't as affected, so don't really care about it happening either.

Am I remembering yesterdays door locking or today?

Definitely agree. Innovation has slowed down. Time will tell if the 1900s was just a complete fluke or not, but personally I think at least part of the slow down is due to the slow collapse of capitalism and democracy. Feels like we're just trudging along purely on inertia since the end of WW2. Like we're an old beat up car that's been patched and duct taped together so much. The whole system feels like it's just ground to a halt and all 'new' progress is just marketing from grifters who've captured the system.

I wasn't claiming the tech was similar. But VR has had several surges in hype over the years. It'll come to the forefront for awhile, then fade to the background again, until something else happens to bring it back to people's attention again.

I think AI hype will die down until someone comes up with some new way to hype it, probably through a novel approach that isn't LLM.

Yep. IMO it'll be kinda like VR. AI will sort of plateau for awhile until they find a new approach and then the hype will kick up again. But the current approach won't scale into true AI. It's just fundamentally flawed.

Let me know where I can buy my android apps on disk I guess?

I mean if you were going to divorce your partner, then by all means take the red pill. You'd probably both be better off then. I was speaking of presumably happy marriages.

Sure, but you're throwing away your current spouse and kid in favor of a do over. That's pretty cold.

Gotta somehow get seed money. Even investing your allowance would only get you a couple of thousand. You're investing doesn't really pay off until you're old enough and rich enough to put real money in the game.
