    First it was blockchain and NFTs. Now it is AI. It is almost like these execs are full of shit.

      Imagine having a job where you can spew buzzword-y bullshit like this all day and never have to show anything for it.

      If I promise something in a daily, I better have at least an experimental implementation for it a week later.

      I think those were mostly from his predecessor, but yeah, the post seems well suited for weather vanes.

      Just spew whatever bullshit is floating in the wind at the moment.

    So which one really is it

    • dropping it for backlash
    • too expensive to be done
    • actually implementing it but keeping it shush for PR

      A lot of tech firms bought into the gold rush mindset. NVIDIA sold the shovels. Sooner or later, when they figure out the world isn’t excitedly opening their wallets, the bubble will pop, and they’ll move on to the next empty hype train.
