Just curious since it seems everyone is mentioning AI in some form in majority of what I see posted here (maybe just the Reddit “algorithm” at work?). It’s almost like not doing AI is enough of a differentiator at this point to stand out in the market. Is there some crossover between Reddit and AI specifically, or is it a bigger trend that everyone is hopping on the AI bandwagon? Feels like “ai” is a rebrand of “machine learning”/“ml” buzzwords from recent past - a lot of fudging the edges of the actual definition, in what I think is an attempt to seem attractive in the funding market. Is anyone concerned about that backfiring?
Mate i don’t know why you feel this way about the market, i understand if you see posts only about AI you get the feeling of it taking over, but there are still like 90% of work fields that can’t be covered by any sort of AI as of today, like my company that makes complex software for managing investments. Understand that AI is the biggest thing humanity has ever “discovered”, but we are in a baby age of AI, so we are still safe with our products/companies as long as they are can’t be replaced by AI Agents. I predict AI will be replacing almost every sort of task by like 30-40 years because of how freaking exponential the growth is, but let’s see…
I agree that there’s a LOT of verified opportunity in markets not related to ai and not being taken over by “ai”. AI will be a huge discovery for humanity (idk if it’ll surpass fire or the wheel though lol) but we don’t have real “AI” yet, we have marketing buzzword AI. A few years ago machine learning was hot and many companies just the machine learning into their pitch deck without doing any machine learning. Seems like ai is just the next thing to throw in a pitch deck either due to fomo or ignorance or on purpose, I’m not going to pretend I know the reasons.
Yeah that’s what i think too
