I very sadly don't see it going anywhere because of how much money has been invested by big tech corporations such as Google, Amazon, and Microsoft.

Reason they're willing to put so much money into these corporations is because they're being built on their cloud infrastructure, which the different AI companies pay for. So either way, they end up getting more money and becoming more influential, even if the AI hype eventually dies out.

AI is both overhyped crap and a revolution.

Next is quantum computing

AI is here to stay but I can't wait to see it get past the point where every app has to have their own AI shoehorned in regardless of what the app is. Sick of it.

I really wish we could retire the phrase "tech bro".

It actively alienates allies that we desperately need.

The average techie does NOT fit the mold of "tech bro".
They tend to be very liberal https://results.enr.clarityelections.com/CA/Santa_Clara/122582/web.345435/#/summary They tend to be more LGBTQ friendly than most industries https://www.spiceworks.com/hr/diversity-inclusion/guest-article/top-lgbtq-friendly-industries-in-the-us/

There's a loud minority of tech leaders who qualify as "tech bros" and they're not representative of the industry. https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2025-02-20/california-silicon-valley-andreessen-zuckerberg-musk-donald-trump

If we continue to lump that large majority of nerds in with that group; at best we're wasting time yelling at allies, at worst we're driving them to the other side.

399 responses and counting. I got bore going through them. The train, apparently is VERY long and indeed will take a VERY long time to pass.
