AI is about to join the list of "stupid technologies that people should really wait and see before investing on", which includes

  • Metaverse - still one of the best jokes around
  • Folding screen phones - overpriced junk
  • Fully autonomous self driving cars - "Just around the corner" for the past 10 years
