> It's a bit like how vacuum cleaner specialists never use Dysons despite them having the most mindshare and overwhelming marketing budget. Regardless of vacuum cleaner specialists also just being normal people.

Yes, but Dyson still crushes the market because it has the mindshare with non-specialists. That’s OPs point, uninformed people (the vast majority) will be impacted more by the “ghibli-core” memetic moment, and have a greater impact on future events than specialists who appreciate the Gemini 2.5 release

Back up the thread it was about the whole market, but then we started talking about AI developers (=the vacuum salesmen) and how much they're affected by the mindshare, which is also the part I quoted. The average consumer, absolutely, they all currently use GPT as the data shows, and are indeed led by Ghibli memes - though there's still plenty of time to change that by the huge players, á la Chrome eating all other browsers despite Microsoft's IE monopoly. AI developers though? Much less so.
