So just the “it’s different this time” mentality shared by all bubbles. Some things never change.

Yeah it wouldn't be a bubble if it didn't have that mentality. Every bubble has had that thought and it's the same now. Kind of hard to notice it though when you are in the eye of the storm.

There were people telling me during the NFT craze that I just don't get it and I am dumb. Not that I am comparing AI to it directly because AI has actual business value but it is funny to think back. I felt I was going mad when everyone tried to gaslight me

The final AI push that doesn't lead to a winter will look like a bubble until it hits. We're realistically ~3 years away from fully autonomous software engineering (let's say 99.9% for a concrete target) if we can shift some research and engineering resources towards control, systems and processes. The economic value of that is hard to overstate.

You are basically saying "it's different this time" with a lot of words.

We had Waymo cars about 18 years ago, and only recently they started to roll out commercially. Just saying.
