In other words, the Chatbot adjacent stuff keeps getting a little better here and there, but not necessarily cheaper to operate. All the venture capital slows to a trickle and we’re left in a space where it’s incredibly impressive technology, but simply costs too much to actually be worth it in most use cases. I can’t be the only one who is OK paying $20 a month for this stuff but would never pay $150 a month or what not. Is that a realistic outcome or is there a reason to think everything will just get cheaper and more efficient as time goes on? Obviously AI has actual uses, unlike crypto, but something about watching all the AI Super Bowl ads reminded me of the 2022 (I think?) Super Bowl with all the crypto shit, and I thought, Hmmm, maybe this just isn’t going to shake out the way these companies think it will. Again, it has real uses so I don’t see it going away, but maybe becoming more of an expensive, niche thing? submitted by /u/FleetBroadbill
