If anything, the LLM overhype is starting to die down........to make way for the AI Agent hype which is on trajectory to be 1000X worse. People are writing articles and making videos about how AI Agents will replace SaaS. What?


The OP compares the current LLM hype to crypto, but I think it's more fair to compare it to the dotcom bubble. When a new, interesting technology appears, there's always a lot of hype around it - I think it's natural. People are still figuring out what works and what doesn't. Naturally, some overoptimistic people overhype it. The dotcom bubble burst; nonetheless, the internet is now an integral part of our lives. Despite the hype, crypto was always a very niche area, while currently even my grandmother uses ChatGPT - just like the internet.


Oh 100% the comparison to dotcom is better than crypto. Despite the hype, AI and dotcom both were useful, crypto was always a grift.
